**Chords:**
D A Bm G
D A
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
Bm G
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
D A
Watching the ships roll in
Bm G
And I watch 'em roll away again
D A
Yeah, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Bm G
Wastin' time
D A
I left my home in Georgia
Bm G
Headed for the Frisco Bay
D A
'Cause I've had nothin' to live for
Bm G
And look like nothin's gonna come my way
D A
So I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Bm G
Wastin' time
D A
Looks like nothin's gonna change
Bm G
Everything still remains the same
D A
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
Bm G
So I guess I'll remain the same
D A
Sittin' here resting my bones
Bm G
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
D A
It's two thousand miles I roam
Bm G
Just to make this dock my home
D A
Now I'm just sittin' at the dock of the bay
Bm G
Wastin' time
