Otis Redding, Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay (1968)
^{Key: :[F#] (w: Steve Cropper, Otis Redding)}

VERSE 1:
[F#] Sitting in the morning [A#7] sun
I'll be [B] sitting when the evening [G#7] comes
[F#] Watching the ships roll [A#7] in
Then I [B] watch 'em roll away [G#7] again

CHORUS:
Yeah, I'm [F#] sitting on the dock of the [D#] bay
Watching the [F#] tide roll a-[D#]-way
Ooh, I'm just [F#] sitting on the dock of the [G#] bay
Wasting [F#] time [D#]

VERSE 2:
I [F#] left my home in [A#7] Georgia
[B] Headed for the Frisco [G#7] bay
[F#] I have nothing to live [A#7] for
Looks like [B] nothing's gonna come my [G#7] way

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
[F#] Looks [C#] like [B] nothings gonna [C#] change
[F#] every-[C#]-thing still [B] remains the [C#] same
[F#] I can't [C#] do what [B] ten people [C#] tell me to do
[E] so I guess I'll remain the [C#] same

VERSE 3:
[F#] Sitting here resting my [A#7] bones
And this [B] loneliness won't leave me a-[G#7]-lone
[F#] Two thousand miles, I [A#7] roam
Just to [B] make this dock my [G#7] home

REPEAT CHORUS:
