Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay Otis Redding ( with Steve Cropper)

^GSittin' in the mornin' ^Bsun I'll be ^Csittin' when the evenin' ^Acomes ^GWatching the ships roll ^Bin And then I ^Cwatch 'em roll away ^Aagain, yeah

I'm ^Gsittin' on the dock of the ^Embay Watching the ^Gtide roll ^Emaway Ooo, I'm just ^Gsittin' on the dock of the ^Abay Wastin' ^Gti^Eme

I ^Gleft my home in ^BGeorgia ^CHeaded for the 'Frisco ^ABay ^G'Cause I've had nothing to ^Blive for And look like^C nothin's gonna come my ^Away

So I'm just gonna ^Gsit on the dock of the ^Embay Watching the^G tide roll ^Emaway Ooo, I'm ^Gsittin' on the dock of the ^Abay Wastin' ^Gti^Eme

^GLooks like, ^D7nothing's gonna ^Cchange ^GEverything ^D7still remains the ^Csame ^GI can't do ^D7what ten people t^Cell me to do ^FSo I guess I'll remain^D the same, yes

^GSittin' here resting my^B bones And this ^Cloneliness won't leave me ^Aalone It's two ^Gthousand miles I ^Broamed Just to ^Cmake this dock my ^Ahome

Now I'm just ^Ggonna sit on the dock of the ^Embay Watching the ^Gtide roll ^Emaway Ooo, I'm ^Gsittin' on the dock of the ^Abay Wastin' ^Gti^Eme

Note: you can substitute B7 for B and a lot of people do, but I believe the B sounds better.
