(Sittin' on the) Dock of the Bay
Otis Redding
G B7
Sittin' in the morning sun
C A
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
G B7
Watching the ships roll in
C A
And I watch 'em roll away a-gain
G E7
Sitting on the dock of the bay
G E7
watching the tide roll a-way
G A G E7
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
G B7
I left my home in Georgia
C A
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
G B7
'Cause I had nothin to live for
C A
And look like nothing's gonna come my way
G E7
So I'm just gonna Sit on the dock of the bay
G E7
watching the tide roll a-way
G A G E7
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
G D C
Look like nothing's gonna change
G D C
E-e--verything still remains the same
G D C G
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
F D
So I guess I'll re-main the same
G B7
Sittin' here resting my bones
C A
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
G B7
It's two thousand miles I roamed
C A
Just to make this dock my home
G E7
Now, I'm just Sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E7
watching the tide roll a-way
G A G E7
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wasting time
