1:  G                      B                C              C B Bb  A

   Sittin' in the morning sun    I'll be sittin' in the evening come

   G                       B           C                C B Bb A

   Watching the ships roll in, then I watch them roll away   again, yeah

CHORUS:

       G                          E                  G          E

   I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, watching the tide roll away

                G                          A         G    E

   ooh I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay    wasting ti---ime

2: I left my home in Georgia  Headed for the Frisco bay

   'Cause I've had nothing to live for and look like nothing's gonna come my way

CHORUS

3: So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay watching the tide roll away, oooh

   I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wasting time

BRIDGE:

   G      D      C2

     Look like nothing's gonna change

   G      D         C2

          Everything still remains the same

   G      D             C2         G

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

   F                    D

      So I guess I'll remain the same

4: Sittin' here resting my bones

   and this loneliness won't leave me alone

   These 2000 miles I roamed

   just to make this dock my home

CHORUS

5:   Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay

   watching the tide roll away, oooh

   Sittin' on the dock of the bay

   wasting time
