Suzanne Chords by Judy Collins

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