G                       B7
   Watching the ships roll in,

C                      C Bb A
   then I watch them roll away again...yea

CHORUS:
       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

VERSE 2:
     G                       B7
   I left my home in Georgia

C                  C Bb A
   Headed for the Frisco bay

G                       B7
   ’Cause I had nothing to live for

C                         C Bb A
   like nothings gonna come my way

CHORUS:

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

BRIDGE:
   -
   G                      D                        C
     Looks like nothing’s gonna change

G                         D                     C
     Everything still remains the same

G              D                       C         G
    I can’t do what ten people tell me to do

F                    D
     So I guess I’ll remain the same

VERSE 3:
         G                           B7
   Sittin’ here resting my bones
           C                                     C Bb A
   and this loneliness won’t leave me alone
        G                            B7
   These 2000 miles I roamed
         C                         C Bb A
   just to make this dock my home

CHORUS:
       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
