Guitar Chords for DOCK OF THE BAY OTIS REDDING ( Otis Redding and Steve Cropper )    

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
