[VERSE]

G B7

Sittin' in the morning sun

C A7

I'll be sittin' when the evening come

G B7

Watching the ships roll in

C A7

then I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah

[CHORUS]

G E

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

watching the tide roll away

G A

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

wasting ti - ime

[VERSE]

G B7

I left my home in Georgia and I

C A7

Headed for the Frisco Bay

G B7

'Cause I've had nothing to live for

C A7

Look like nothing's gonna come my way

[CHORUS]

G E

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

watching the tide roll away

G A

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

wasting ti - ime

[BRIDGE]

G D C

Look like nothing's gonna change

G D C

Everything seems to stay the same

G D C

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

F D

So I guess I'll remain the same

[VERSE]

G B7

Sittin' here resting my bones

C A7

and this loneliness won't leave me alone

G B7

These two thousand miles I roamed

C A7

just to make this dock my home

[CHORUS]

G E

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

watching the tide roll away

G A

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

G E

wasting ti - ime
