G# C

I'm sittin' in the mornin' sun

Sittin' when the evenin' comes

Watchin' the ships roll in

C# A#

Then I'll watch 'em roll away again

CHORUS:

G# F

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

G# F

Wastin' time

Left my home in Georgia

Looks like nothin's gonna come my way

Looks like nothin's ever gonna change

Everything still remains the same

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

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home
