[Gb] [Db] [Gb]
[B] [Gb]
Suzanne takes you [Abm] down to [Gb] a place by the river
[Abm] You can hear the boats [Gb] go [B] by, you [Abm] can spend the [Gb] night [B] forever
And you know that she's half crazy, that's why you want to be [Ab] there
And [Bbm] she feeds you tea and oranges [Gb] that come all the way from China
And just when you want to tell [B] her [Gb] that you have no love to give her
[Ab] She gets [Abm] you on her [B] wavelength [Bb] and lets the [Gb] river answer
That you've always [Db] been her lover
[Abm] [Gb]
And [Bbm] you want to travel with her, [B] and you want to [Ab] travel blind
And you [Gb] think you'll maybe trust [B] her
[Bb] For she's [Abm] touched your [B] perfect body with her [Gb] mind
[B] [Gb]
[B] [Gb] And Jesus was a sailor when [Gb] he walked upon the water
[Db] And he [Abm] spent a long time [B] watching [Abm] from a lonely [Gb] wooden tower
[Eb] [Gb]
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see [Ab] him
[Bbm] He said all men shall be sailors [B]
then until the sea shall free them
[Db]
But [Gb] he himself was [Db] broken long [Ab] before [Gb] the sky would open
[Ab] Forsaken, [B] almost human, [Ab] he [Abm] sank beneath your [Ebm] wisdom like [Gb] a stone
[Db]
[Gb] And you [Bbm] want to travel with him, and [B] you want to travel blind
[Gb] And you think you'll maybe [Abm] trust him
[Gb]
[Bb] For he's [Abm] touched your [B] perfect body with his [Gb] mind
[B] [Gb]
[Gb]
Suzanne [Db] takes you down to her place [Gb] by the river
You [Ab] can [Abm] hear the boats go [B] by
[Bb] You can [Ebm] spend the night forever
And [Gb] the sun pours [Ab] down like honey on our lady of the harbor
[Bbm] And she shows you where to look amid [Ab] the garbage on the flowers
There are [Gb] heroes in the [Eb] seaweed
[Gb] There are children in the morning
[Ab] They are leaning [Ebm] out for love and they [Bb] will lean [Ab] that way forever
[B] [Gb] While Suzanne holds [B] the [Gb] mirror
And [Bbm] you [G] want to travel [Bb] with [Bbm] her, [B] and you want to [Abm] travel blind
[Gb] And you think maybe you'll trust [B] her
[Ebm] For you've touched [Abm] her perfect body [Gb] with your mind
[Abm] [Gb]
