G                      B
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
        C                        A
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
G                       B
Watching the ships roll in
           C                    A
And then I watch 'em roll away again


    G                          A
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
             G          E7
Watching the tide roll away
         G                          A
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
        G         E7
Wastin' ti--------me


  G               B
I left my home in Georgia
C                      A
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
       G                    B
Cause I've had nothing to live for
               C                      A
And looks like nothin's gonna come my way


                  G                      A
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
             G          E7
Watching the tide roll away
    G                          A
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
        G        E7
Wastin' ti--------me


G            D C
Look like nothing's gonna change
G   D         C
Everything still remains 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 listen


G                       B
Sittin' here resting my bones
         C                          A
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
     G                    B
It's two thousand miles I roamed
        C                 A
Just to make this dock my home


                   G                      A
Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
             G          E7
Watching the tide roll away
G                          A
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
        G         E7
Wastin' ti---------me
