[Verse 1]
F# A#7 *
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
B G#
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
F# A#7
Watching the ships roll in
B G#
Then I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah
[Chorus]
F# D#
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
F# D#
Watching the tide roll away
F# G#
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
F# D#
Wastin' time
[Verse 2]
F# A#7
I left my home in Georgia
B G#
Headed for the 'Frisco Bay
F# A#7
I have nothing to live for
B G#
Look like nothin's gonna come my way
[Chorus]
F# D#
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
F# D#
Watching the tide roll away
F# G#
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
F# D#
Wastin' time
[Bridge]
F# C# B F#
Look like, nothing's gonna change
F# C# B F#
Everything still remains the same
F# C# B F#
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
E C#
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes
[Verse 3]
F# A#7
Sittin' here resting my bones
B G#
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
F# A#7
It's two thousand miles I roam
B G#
Just to make this dock my home
[Chorus]
F# D#
Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
F# D#
Watching the tide roll away
F# G#
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
F# D#
Wastin' time
[Whistling]
F# D# .......
