Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river.
You can [Fm] hear the boats go by.
You can spend the night beside her.
And [Eb] you know that she's half crazy,
but that's why you want to be there.
And [Gm] she feeds you tea and orange juice
[Ab] that come all the way from China.
And [Eb] just when you mean to tell her
[Fm] that you have no love to give her,
[Ab] then she [Eb] gets you on her wavelength.
[Fm] And she lets the river answer
that [Eb] you've always been her lover.
And you [Gm] want to travel with her,
[Ab] and you want to travel blind.
And [Eb] you know that she will trust you,
for you've [Fm] touched her perfect body with [Eb] your mouth.
And Jesus was a sailor
when he walked upon the water.
And he spent a long time watching
from his lonely wooden tower.
And [Eb] when he knew for certain
only drowning men could see him,
he said, O [Gm] men, we'll be sailors,
then [Ab] until the sea shall free them.
[Eb] But he himself was broken
long [Fm] before the sky would open
[Eb] forsaken, almost human.
[Fm] He sank beneath your wisdom like [Eb] a star.
And you [Gm] want to travel with him,
and [Ab] you want to travel blind.
And [Eb] you think maybe you'll trust him,
[F] for he's touched [Fm] your perfect body with [Eb] his mouth.
Now Susanne needs your help,
and she leads you to the river.
She [Fm] is wearing rags and feathers
from Salvation Army counters.
And [Eb] the sun pours down like honey
on our lady of the harbor.
And she [Gm] shows you where [Cm] to look
[Gm] among [Ab] the carwash and the flowers.
There [Eb] are flowers in the seaweed.
[Fm] There are children in the morning.
[Eb] They are leaving out for love.
They [Fm] will lead that way forever
while [Eb] Susanne holds a mirror.
And you [Gm] want to travel with her,
and you [Ab] want to travel blind.
And [Eb] you know that you can trust her,
for she's [Fm] touched your perfect body with her mouth.
