capo 1

verse 1:  
   G                      B7  
   Sittin' in the morning sun 

           C                    C  B Bb  A  
   I'll be sittin' in the evening come  

   G                       B7  
   Watching the ships roll in,  

                C                      C B Bb A  
   then I watch them roll away again...yea

       G                        Em  
   I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay  

        G                  Em  
   watching the tide roll away  

           G                                A  
   Oh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay  

   G         E  
   wasting time   

   verse 2:  
     G                  B7  
   I left my home in Georgia  

       C                C B Bb A  
   Headed for the Frisco bay  

       G                       B7  
   'Cause I had nothing to live for  

      C                      C B Bb A  
   like nothing's gonna come my way

  G                            Em  
   I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay  

      G                    Em  
   watching the tide roll away  

           G                                 A  
   Oh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay  

     G         E  
   wasting time  

Bridge:  
   -  
   G   D   C  
     Looks 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  

verse 3:  
    G                      B7  
   Sittin' here resting my bones  
           C                         C B Bb A  
   and this loneliness won't leave me alone  
        G                            B7  
   These 2000 miles I roamed  
         C                         C B Bb A  
   just to make this dock my home

        G                 Em  
   watching the tide roll away  

        G                                  A  
   Oh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
