Intro: E Verse 1: E Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river Gbm You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her E And you know that she's halfcrazy but that's why you want to be there Abm A And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China E Gbm And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her E Then she gets you on her wavelength Gbm E And she lets the river answer that you've always been her lover Chorus: Abm A And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind E And you know that she will trust you Gbm E For you've touched her perfect body with your mind Verse 2: E And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water Gbm 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 Abm A He said all men will be sailors then until the sea shall free them E Gbm But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open E Gbm E Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone Chorus: Abm A And you want to travel with him, and you want to travel blind E And you think maybe you'll trust him Gbm E For he's touched your perfect body with his mind Verse 3: E Now, Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river Gbm She's wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters E And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor Abm A And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers E Gbm There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning E Gbm They are leaning out for love and they wil lean that way forever E While Suzanne holds her mirror Chorus: Abm A And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind E And you know that you can trust her Gbm E For she's touched your perfect body with her mind
