Sittin' in the 

mornin' 
B7
sun, 

I'll be 
C
sittin' when the 

evenin' 
A
comes

 
G
Watching the 

ships roll 
B7
in, and 

Then I 
C
watch 'em roll a

way a
A
gain, 

yeah

	I'm 
G
sittin' on the 

dock of the 
E
bay, 

	watching the 
G
tide 

roll a
E
way 

Oooh 

	I'm just 
G
sittin' on the 

dock of the 
A
bay 

	wastin' 
G
time 

E

I 
G
left my 

home in

Georgia, 

 
C
headed for the 

'Frisco 
A
Bay

'Cause 
G
I had 

nothing to 
B7
live for, 

Look like 
C
nothin's gonna 

come my 
A
way

 
G
Looks like, 
D
nothing's 
C
gonna 
G
change

 
G
Every
D
thing still re
C
mains the 
G
same

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

 
F
So I 

guess I'll re
D
main the 

same, yes

 
G
Sittin' here 

resting my 
B7
bones

And this 
C
loneliness won't 

leave me a
A
lone

It's 
G
two thousand 

miles I 
B7
roamed

Just to 
C
make this 

dock my 
A
home
