[Verse 1]
I’m supposed to be sAmtoic
As I wipe the tFears off of my face
Watch the shCips off the coast of Mexico
Block it oGut as they roll away
I still see you sAmmiling
Even as I’m sFelfish as I’ve ever been
See you sCitting in your chair
See you sGinging happy birthday
[Interlude]
C Am F G (x2)
[Verse 2]
I got the call in JAmune
But couldn’t bring myself to sFee you
Or even gCet you on the phone G
I wanted yAmou to remember Fme in perfection
But rCeally I'm G
I’m just a fucking cAmoward
I couldn’t sFtand to see you die C
And I was dealing with my oGwn shit
If I’m being hAmonest
mom said you’d uFnderstand
But I don’t blCame you if you dGidn’t
[Chorus]
And I’m C
on the docks again Am
Looking out at that awful oFcean
Watching the tide take you awGay
CI know you ain’t resting your bones Am
I know you ain’t made it back home F
At least the loneliness gave yGou a break
[Interlude]
C Am F G (x2)
[Verse 3]
We never held a fuAmneral F
'Cause of the cConsequence they bringG
Letting Amgo is never eFasy
Even wChen you’re empty
Even wGhen you're alone
AmI hope they pFlayed you Otis RCedding G
I hope you hAmeard me hum alFong
As those arms of yCours
went down inGto the dark
[Chorus]
And I’m C
on the docks again Am
Looking out at that awful oFcean
Watching the tide take you awGay
CI know you ain’t resting your bones Am
I know you ain’t made it back home F
At least the loneliness gave yGou a break
[Bridge]
And my pFhone rang a year lGater
With your sAmmile haunting Gme
And I fFinally broke at a rGental home
In JAmoshua Tree G
And I tFell myself it gets bGetter
But it nAmever gets any eGasier
when your vFoice
It ain’t Gon the other sAmide
[Verse 4]
AmI hope they played you Otis RFedding
I hope you remCembered I named my guitar
After your fGavorite singer
of your favorite sAmong
And I break down every time I sFee
That old Spanish nylon that you boCught
It never comes off the shelf anyGmore
[Chorus]
CI'm on the docks again Am
Looking out at that awful oFcean
Watching the tide take you awGay
CI know you ain’t resting your bones Am
I know you ain’t made it back home F
At least the loneliness G
At least the loneliness gave you a break C
