jimmy "bo" horne - (sittin' on) the dock of the bay lyrics

[intro]
fa+fafafafa+fafafafa
fa+fafafafa+fafafa

[verse 1]
sittin’ in the morning sun, i’ll be sittin’ when the evening come
watchin’ the ships roll in, then i’ll watch ’em roll away again

[chorus]
i’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay, watchin’ the tides roll away
sittin’ on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time

[verse 2]
i left my home in georgia, headed for the frisco bay
i had nothin’ to love for, nothin’s gonna come my way

[chorus]
i’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay, watchin’ the tides roll away
i’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time

[bridge]
look like nothing’s gonna change
everything remains the same
i can’t do what ten people tell me to do
guess i got to remain the same
[verse 3]
sittin’ in the morning sun, i’ll be sittin’ when the evening come
ten thousand miles i roamed, i got to make this dock my home
lord, have mercy!

[chorus]
sittin’ on the dock of the bay, watchin’ the tides a+just roll away
sittin’ on the dock of the bay, oh lordie
oh somebody, somebody help me right here

[vamp]
fa+fafafafa+fafafafa, somebody come on home
i just need you here, i gotta have you there
i just need you in my lovin’ arms
i got+got+got+got+got, i gotta have your love
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) all your love in the mornin’
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) the only man, gagagagagagagagagagagaga
i can’t turn you loose, baby, holdin’ you tighter
girl, say you’ve been+ oh, i’m just hoping
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) that everything got to get better
ships going in and out (fa+fafafafa+fafafafa)
and i’m right here, sittin’ on the dock
i’m just sittin’ on the dock, sittin’ here, baby
somebody help me, lord, ah…

[bridge]
fa+fafafafa+fafafafa
fa+fafafafa+fafafa
fa+fafafafa+fafafafa
fa+fafafafa+fafafa
[vamp]
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) sittin’ on the dock, sittin’ here, baby
(fa+fafafafa+fafafa) somebody help me, lord, ah…
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) sittin’ on the dock, girl, gotta have your lovin’
(fa+fafafafa+fafafa) girl, don’t you know?
girl, don’t you, got to+got+got

[outro]
(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) sittin’ in the morning sun

(fa+fafafafa+fafafafa) slow path from georgia, 10,000 miles (ooh!)
(fa+fafafafa+fafafa) got to go home one day (thank you very much!)
