[Verse 1]
G B7
Sittin' in the morning sun
C C Bb A
I'll be sittin' in the evening come
G B7
Watching the ships roll in,
C C Bb A
then I watch them roll away again...yea
[Chorus]
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]

I left my home in Georgia
C C Bb A
Headed for the Frisco bay
G B7
'Cause I had nothing to live for
C C Bb A
like nothings gonna come my way
[Chorus]

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

Oh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
wasting time

Looks like nothing's gonna change
G D C
Everything still remains the same
G D C G
I can't do what ten people tell me to do

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

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

watching the tide roll away

Oh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
wasting time
