(vagues)  w/ G  très loin

G                      B7
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
        C                        A7
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
G                       B7
Watching the ships roll in
       C                    A7
Then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

      G                          E                    w/ petit fill cool
  I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
               G          E
  Watching the tide roll away
               G                          A7
  Ooh I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
          G     E
  Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I have nothing to live for
It look like nothin's gonna come my way

  So I'm just gon' sit on the dock of the bay
  Watching the tide roll away
  Ooh I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
  Wastin' time

    G    D      C(6,7)
    Look like nothing's gonna change
    G  D       C(6,7)
    Everything still remains the same
    G D             C               G
    I can't do what ten people tell me to do
    Fadd9             D
    So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

I'm sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone, yes
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

  Now I'm just gon' sit at the dock of the bay
  Watching the tide roll away
  Ooh I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
  Wastin' time
