DOCK OF THE BAY Otis Redding and Steve Cropper G B Sittin' in the mornin' sun C A I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes Watchin' the ships roll in And I watch 'em roll away again G E Ch: Sittin' on the dock of the bay G E Watchin' the tide roll away G A Sittin' on the dock of the bay G E Wastin' time I left my home in Georgia Headed for the Frisco Bay I have nothin' to live for Look like nothin's gonna come my way Ch: Sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time B: G D C Looks like nothin's gonna change G D C Everything still remains the same F I can't do what ten people tell me to do D So I guess I'll remain the same Sittin' here restin' my bones Wish this loneliness would leave me alone For 2,000 miles I roam Just to make this dock my home C: Sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
