{title:Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay}

{subtitle:Otis Redding / Steve Cropper}

[[G]]Sitting in the morning [[B7]]sun;

I'll be [[C]]sitting when the evening [[A]]comes.

[[G]]Watching the ships roll [[B7]]in

And I [[C]]watch 'em roll away a[[A]]gain, yeah.

{soc}

[[G]]Sitting on the dock of the [[E]]bay

Watching the [[G]]tide roll aw[[E]]ay.

I'm just [[G]]sitting on the dock of the [[A]]bay

Wasting [[G]]time. [[E]]

{eoc}

I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the 'Frisco bay

'Cause I had nothin to live for

And look like nothing's gonna come my way

So I'm just...

{c:repeat chorus}

[[G]]Look [[D7]]like nothing's gonna change [[G]]

I [[D7]]can't do what people tell [[G]]me to do. [[F]]

So I guess I'll remain[[D]] the same.

Sittin here resting my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

It's two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just...

{c:repeat chorus}

(Whistle)
