Suzanne

E Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river. F#m You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her, E And you know that she's half crazy, but that's why you want to be there, G#m A And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China, E and just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her, F#m She gets you on her wavelength and she lets the river answer E That you've always been her lover. G#m A And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind, E and you know that she will trust you, F#m E Esus4 for you've touched her perfect body with your mind E And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water, F#m And he spent a long time watching from a lonely wooden tower, E And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him, G#m A he said "All men shall be sailors then until the sea shall free them." E But he himself was broken long before the sky would open. F#m E Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone G#m A And you want to travel with him and you want to travel blind E and you think maybe you'll trust him, F#m E Esus4 for he's touched your perfect body with his mind . E Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river. F#m She is wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters, E And the sun pours down like honey on Our Lady Of The Harbour, G#m A And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers. E There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning. F#m They are leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever E While Suzanne holds the mirror G#m A And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind E and you that you can trust her, F#m E Esus4 for she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
