Verse 1
D
D
Suzanne takes you down
to her place near the river
Em
Em
You can hear the boats go by,
you can spend the night beside her
D
D
And you know that she's half- crazy
but that's why you want to be there
F#m
F#m
And she feeds you tea and oranges
G
G
that come all the way from China
D
D
And just when you mean to tell her
Em
Em
that you have no love to give her
D
D
Then she gets you on her wavelength
Em
Em
And she lets the river answer
D
D
D
D
that you've always been her lover
Chorus 1
F#m
F#m
And you want to travel with her,
G
G
and you want to travel blind
D
D
And then you know that she will trust you
Em
Em
For you've touched her perfect body
D
D
with your mind
D

Verse 2
D
D
And Jesus was a sailor
when he walked upon the water
Em
Em
And he spent a long time watching
from his lonely wooden tower
D
D
And when he knew for certain
only drowning men could see him
F#m
F#m
He said all men will be sailors
G
G
then until the sea shall free them
D
D
But he himself was broken,
Em
Em
long before the sky would open
D
D
Forsaken, almost human,
Em
Em
he sank beneath your wisdom
D
D
like a stone
D
D
D
D
Chorus 2
F#m
F#m
And you want to travel with him,
G
G
and you want to travel blind
D
D
And then you think maybe you'll trust him
Em
Em
For he's touched your perfect body
D
D
with his mind
D
D
D

Verse 3
D
D
Now, Suzanne takes your hand
and she leads you to the river
Em
Em
She's wearing rags and feathers
from Salvation Army counters
D
D
And the sun pours down like honey
on our lady of the harbor
F#m
F#m
And she shows you where to look
G
G
among the garbage and the flowers
D
D
There are heroes in the seaweed,
Em
Em
there are children in the morning
D
D
They are leaning out for love
Em
Em
and they will lean that way forever
D
D
D
D
While Suzanne holds the mirror
Chorus 3
F#m
F#m
And you want to travel with her,
G
G
and you want to travel blind
D
D
And then you know that you can trust her
Em
Em
For she's touched your perfect body
D
D
with her mind
D
