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

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

I left my home in Georgia
C C B Bb A
Headed for the Frisco bay
G B7
'Cause I had nothing to live for

like nothing's gonna come my way
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

Everything still remains the same

Sittin' here resting my bones
C C B Bb A
and this loneliness won't leave me alone

These 2000 miles I roamed

just to make this dock my home

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

wasting time
