Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay – Otis Redding
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Thom_Alexander
Email: thomasditchburn@hotmail.co.uk

Tuning: Standard

When I play it I like to add a lil’ bit of percussion to the song, makes it
feel more authentic, so when you see 'x' smack your thumb off the low E to
create a little snare sound, I’m sure it sounds okay without it though,
feel free to experiment ;D

+Personally, not to sure about the bridge but it works for me...enjoy

Look like nothing's gonna change,
Everything still remains the same,

So I guess I'll remain the same,
