[Dm]
Since childhood, Tyler James and his best friend
[G] thought they'd be singing together forever.
But last year, [Ab] all that came to an [Bb] end.
My name is Tyler James.
I am [A] 30 years old and I'm a singer-songwriter.
[Dm] When I was a teenager, my best friend was Amy Winehouse.
[C]
[Gm] We became [G] friends when [Ab] we were, like, [Bb] 12, 13.
We both went to the same school.
We've been best [A] friends, like, ever since then.
[C] We were like two peas in a pod.
You know, we were like two halves [Am] of the same person.
Unfortunately, [G] last summer, worst day of my life, [E] Amy died.
[Em] [F] And [C] my whole life changed.
Now, I mean, she's here, she's here with me, I know that,
but [G] it's about me finding my own feet.
And the only way for [Em] me that I'm ever really going to find that,
[G] it is through music, it's through singing.
[Gbm]
[Dbm] This competition's about me building up my [Gbm] confidence,
like, for myself, you [D] know?
It's very important to me.
Very.
[B] There's a lot riding on this.

Sitting in the morning [B] sun
[C] I'll be sitting when the [A] evening comes
[G]
Watching the ships [B] roll in
[C] And I'll watch them roll [A] away again
So I'm [G] just gonna sit on the dock of [E] the bay
Watching the tide [E] roll away
Ooh, yeah, [G]
sitting on the dock of [A] the bay
Wasting time, [E] yeah
[G]
[D] Looks like [C] nothing's gonna change
[G]
[D] [C] Everything's still the same
[G]
I [D] can't do [C] what some people tell me to [F] do
So I guess I'll [D] remain the same, [G] yeah
Sitting here resting [B] my bone
And [C] this loneliness won't [A] leave me alone
[G]
Three thousand miles [B] I've roamed
[C] Just to make this [A] dock my home
So I'm [G] just gonna sit on the dock of [E] the bay
Watching [G] the tide [E] roll away

What's your [C] name?
My name is Tyler James.
First of all, [Fm] I wanna say thanks [E] for hitting that,
topping it off on that high note, that falsetto at the end.
Through your whole performance, you sounded really good.
And that last falsetto thing that you did
showed your range and how smooth you can be at the same time,
and you're awesome.
Thanks, man.
[Abm] [N]
Hi.
You all right?
Yeah, just nervous.
Um, you shouldn't be nervous.
I really enjoyed it, and I'm really happy that
you and Danny go to the same hairdressers.
As long as it's the case, maybe.
How do you do that?
I don't know, hairspray, I guess.
I didn't know I had hair like that.
It's not what you've got to look forward to.
Oh, thanks.
No, I really enjoyed it.
I know that song very well, though.
And maybe I'm so used to the Otis Redding version,
and I knew Otis Redding, he was a great guy.
I know a lot of people, I know.
I know the song so well,
you know, it's hard for me to [Db] judge you singing that song.
[Ab] Yeah.
But I liked it.
[Ebm] [Bbm] So, [Ab] you're on my team.
Cool, man, thank you.
