Intro: E (E E4) E Suzanne takes you down to her place near 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 wanna be there G#m A And she feeds you tea and oranges that came all the way from China E F#m And just when you want to tell her that you have no love to give her E F#m Then 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 F#m And you know she will trust you for you touched her perfect body E 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 his lonely wooden tower E And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him G#m A He said all men will be sailors then until the sea shall free them E F#m But he himself was broken long before the sky would open E 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 F#m And you think maybe you'll tust him for he's touched your perfect body E With his mind E Now suzanne takes your hand, she leads you to the river F#m She's wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters E And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor G#m A And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers E F#m There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning E F#m They are leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever E While Suzanne holds her mirror G#m A And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind E F#m And you know you can trust her for she's touched your perfect body E With her mind
