Otis Redding (9 de setembro de 1941 - 10 de dezembro de 1967) foi um influente cantor estadunidense de soul, conhecido por seu estilo passional e pelo sucesso póstumo "(Sittin' On) the Dock of the Bay". Nascido em Macon, Geórgia, ele começou a trabalhar na indústria musical no começo dos anos 60, gravando "These Arms of Mine", que se tornou um hit. Em seguida vieram "Mr. Pitiful", "I Can't Turn You Loose", "(I Can Get No) Satisfaction" e "Respect".

[Intro]
DG
[Verse 1]
GD7 If I was the sun, way up there, CG I'd go with love, most everywhere. GD7 I'll be the moon, when the sun goes down, CG Just to let you know, that I'm still around.
[Chorus 1]
GD7 That's how strong my love is, CG Oh, that's how strong my love is. GD7 That's how strong my love is, baby, baby, CG That's how strong my love is.
[Verse 2]
GD7 I'll be the weeping willow, drowning in my tears, CG You can go swimming, when you're here. GD7 I'll be the rainbow, when the sun is gone, CG Wrap you in my colours and keep you warm.
[Chorus 2]
GD7 That's how strong my love is, darling, CG That's how strong my love is, baby. GD7 That's how strong my love is, ooh, CG That's how strong my love is.
[Bridge 1]
EmC I'll be the ocean, so deep and wide, EmC I'll get out the tears, when-ever you cry. EmC I'll be the breeze, after the storm is gone, D To dry your eyes and love you warm.
[Chorus 3]
GD7 That's how strong my love is, baby, CG That's how strong my love is. GD7 That's how strong my love is, darling, CG That's how strong my love is.
[Coda]
GD7 That's how strong my love is, so deep in, CG Well, that's how strong my love is. GD7 So much love, yes, so much love, ooh, CG Yes, so much love, yes, so much love. GD7 Anything that I can do, I'll be good for you, CG Any kind of love you want, I'll be with you...
