Sittin On The Dock Of The Bay


Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay by Glen Campbell Glen Campbell did a cover of this song, which was originally done by Otis Redding. It's almost exactly the same, but I like his version better, so I felt like I should tab it. For the verse, play: |-3---2---0--------0----| |-3---0---1--------2----| |-0---2---0--------0----| |-0---1---2--------2----| |-2---2---3--3-2-1-0----| |-3---------------------| For the chorus, play: |-3---0---3---0---3---0---3---0---| |-3---0---3---0---3---2---3---0---| |-0---1---0---1---0---2---0---1---| |-0---2---0---2---0---2---0---2---| |-2---2---2---2---2---0---2---2---| |-3---0---3---0---3-------3---0---| For the bridge, play: |-3--2--0---3--2--0---3--2--0---1---2----| |-3--3--1---3--3--1---3--3--1---1---3----| |-0--2--0---0--2--0---0--2--0---2---2----| |-0--0--2---0--0--2---0--0--2---3---0----| |-2-----3---2-----3---2-----3---3--------| |-3---------3---------3---------1--------| And after the third chorus, just strum a G and an E. Verse 1 Sittin' in the mornin' sun I'll be sittin' when the evening comes Watchin' the ships roll in And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah Chorus 1 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time Verse 2 I left my home in Georgia Headed for the Frisco Bay I have nothing to live for Looks like nothing's gonna come my way, yeah Chorus 2 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time Bridge Looks like nothing's gonna change Everything still remains the same I can't do what ten people tell me to do So, I guess I'll remain the same Verse 3 I'm sittin' here restin' my bones And this loneliness won't leave me alone For two thousand miles I've roamed Just to call this dock my home Chorus 3 I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time And that's it.
