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

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

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