Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]1, 2, 3, 4
Sitting in the morning [B]sun
I'll be [C]sitting when the evening [A]comes
Watch[G]ing the ships roll [B]in
Then I'll [C]watch them roll away [A]again
I'm just sit[G]tin' on the dock of the bay
[E]Watchin' the tid[G]e roll awa[E]y
I'm [G]sittin' on the dock of [A]the bay
Wastin' [G]time [E]I lef[G]t my
home in Geor[B]gia
And I [C]headed for the Frisco [A]Bay
Cause [G]I've got nothing to [B]live for
Look like [C]nothing's gonna come [A]my way
So I'm just gonna [G]sit on the dock of a bay
[E]Watching the tid[G]e roll away
[E]I'm sit[G]ting on the dock of a b[A]ay
Wasting [G]time
I [E]look [G]lik[D]e nothing's
[C]gonna change
[G]everything [D]seem[C]s to stay the [G]same
I [D]can't do what [C]10 people tell [G]me to do [F]so
I guess I'll remain [D]the same
[G]Sitting here resting my [B]bones
And this [C]loneliness won't
leave me [A]alone
Listen, for [G]two thousand miles [B]I roamed
Just to [C]make this dock my [A]home
Now I'm just sit[G]ting on the dock of a bay
[E]Watching the tid[G]es roll away
[E]Ooh, sittin[G]' on the dock of the[A] bay,
I'm wastin' [G]time[E][G][E][G]
[G]
