1: G B C C B Bb A
Sittin' in the morning sun I'll be sittin' in the evening come
G B C C B Bb A
Watching the ships roll in, then I watch them roll away again, yeah
CHORUS:
G E G E
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, watching the tide roll away
G A G E
ooh I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay wasting ti---ime

'Cause I've had nothing to live for and look like nothing's gonna come my way
CHORUS

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wasting time
BRIDGE:
G D C2
Look like nothing's gonna change
G D C2
Everything still remains the same
G D C2 G
I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same
4: Sittin' here resting my bones
and this loneliness won't leave me alone
These 2000 miles I roamed
just to make this dock my home
CHORUS

watching the tide roll away, oooh
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
wasting time
