 I`ll be sitting when the ev - Fis - ning come,

 Watchin` the ships roll in,

 CIS D   D CIS C H
 Then I watch`em roll away again.

 FIS     A         FIS
 Watching the tide roll away,

 Oo-ee sitting on the dock of the bay, wasting time.

 I left my home in Georgia,

 Headed for the Fri - i - sco Bay.

 I have nothing to live for,

 Look like nothing gonna co - me my way.

 Yeah ! I`m sitting on the dock of the bay

 Watching the tide roll away,

 Oo-ee sitting on the dock of the bay, wasting time.

 Look like nothing gonna change;

 Ev`rything still remains the same.

 I can`t do what ten people tell me to do,

 G  A
 So I guess I`ll remain the same.

 Sitting here resting my bones,

 And this loneliness won`t leave me alone.

 Two thousend miles I roam

 Just to make this do - ck my home.

 Yeah ! I`m sitting on the dock of the bay....
