G Sittin’ in the morning B sun
I’ll be C sittin’ in the evening A come
G Watching the ships roll B in,
then I C watch them roll away a-A gain, yeah

I’m G sittin’ on the dock of the E9 bay
watching the G tide roll E9 away
Ooh I’m just G sittin’ on the dock of the A bay
wasting G ti-E9 ime

G I left my home in B Georgia
C Headed for the Frisco A bay
’Cause G I’ve had nothing to B live for
and look like C nothing’s gonna come my A way

So I’m just G sittin’ on the dock of the E9 bay
watching the G tide roll a-E9 way
ooh G sittin’ on the dock of the A bay
wasting G ti-E9 ime

G D Look like C nothing’s gonna change
G D Everything C still remains the same
G D I can’t do what C ten people G tell me to do
F So I guess I’ll re-D main the same

G Sittin’ here resting my B bones
and this C loneliness won’t leave me a-A lone
G Two thousand miles I B roam
just to C make this dock my Ahome

Now, I’m G sittin’ on the dock of the E9 bay
Watching the G tide roll E9 away
Ooh G sittin’ on the dock of the A bay
wasting G ti-E9 ime
