Dock of the Bay
Otis Redding

G 
Sittin' in the mornin'
B 
sun
 
I'll be
C 
sittin' when the evenin'
A 
come
G 
Watching the ships roll
B 
in
 
And then I
C 
watch 'em roll away
A 
again

 
I'm
G 
sittin' on the dock of the
E 
bay
 
Watching the
G 
tide roll a
B 
way
 
I'm just
G 
sittin' on the dock of the
A 
bay
 
Wastin'
G 
time
E 

G 
I left my home in
B 
Georgia
C 
Headed for the 'Frisco
A 
bay
 
'Cause I've
G 
had nothing to
B 
live for
 
And look like
C 
nothin's gonna come my
A 
way

 
I'm just gonna
G 
sit on the dock of the
E 
bay ...

G 
Look like
D 
nothing's
C 
gonna change
G 
Every
D 
thing
C 
still remains the same
G 
I can't
D 
do what
C 
ten people tell me to do
G 
So I
Fmaj7 
guess I'll remain the
D 
same

G 
Sittin' here resting my
B 
bones
 
And this
C 
loneliness won't leave me
A 
alone
 
It's
G 
two thousand miles I
B 
roamed
 
Just to
C 
make this dock my
A 
home

 
Now I'm just gonna
G 
sit on the dock of the
E 
bay ...
