Standard (EADGBE)

Sittin' in the mornin' sun

 I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes

Watching the ships roll in

 And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

 Watching the tide roll away

 Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

 Wastin' time

 I left my home in Georgia

Headed for the 'Frisco Bay

'Cause I've had nothing to live for

 And look like nothin's gonna come my way

 So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay

 Watching the tide roll away

 Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

 Wastin' time

Looks like, nothing's gonna change

Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

Sittin' here resting my bones

 And this loneliness won't leave me alone

 It's two thousand miles I roamed

 Just to make this dock my home

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

 Watching the tide roll away

 Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

 Wastin' time
