Verse:
G                      B
Sittinʼ in the morninʼ sun,
        C                   B Bb A
Iʼll be sittinʼ when the eveninʼ comes.
G                       B
Watching the ships roll in,
       C               B Bb A
then I watch ʼem roll away again, yeah.

Chorus:
    G                          E
Iʼm sittinʼ on the dock of the bay,
             G          E
watching the tide roll away.
             G                          A
Oo, Iʼm just sittinʼ on the dock of the bay,
        G     E
wastinʼ time.

Verse:
G                      B
I left my home in Georgia,
C                   B Bb A
headed for the ʼFrisco Bay.
G                      B
I have nothing to live for,
C                   B Bb A
it look like nothinʼs gonna come my way.

Bridge:
G    D       C
Look like nothingʼs gonna change.
G  D   C
Evʼrything still remains the same.
G D             C               G
I canʼt do what ten people tell me to do,
F                 D
so I guess Iʼll remain the same, yes.

Verse:
G                      B
Iʼm sittinʼ here restinʼ my bones,
C                   B Bb A
and this loneliness wonʼt leave me alone, yes.
C                   B Bb A
Two thousand miles I roamed
G                      B
just to make this-a dock my home..

Chorus.
