D
suzanne takes you down to her place by the river
Em
you can hear the boats go by

you can spend the night forever
D
and you know that she’s half crazy

but that’s why you want to be there
F#m
and she feeds you tea and oranges
G
that come all the way from china
D
and just when you mean to tell her

that you have no love to give her
Em
then she gets you on her wavelength

and lets the river answer
D
that you’ve always been her lover

F#m
and you want to travel with her
G
and you want to travel blind
D
and you think you maybe trust her
Em D
cause she’s touched your perfect body with her mind .

D
and jesus was a sailor

when he walked on the water
Em
and he spent a long time watching

from his lonely wooden tower
D
and when he knew for certain

only drowning men could see him
F#m
he said “all men shall be sailors then
G
until the sea shall free them”
D
but he himself was broken

long before the sky would open
Em
forsaken , almost human
D
he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

F#m
and you want to travel with him
G
and you want to travel blind
D
and you think you maybe trust him
Em D
for he’s touched your perfect body with his mind .

D
and suzanne takes you down to her place by the river
Em
you can hear the boats go by

you can spend the night forever
D
and the sun pours down like honey

on our lady of the harbor
F#m
and she shows you where to look
G
amid the garbage and the flowers
D
there are heroes in the seaweed

there are children in the morning
Em
they are leaning out for love

and they will lean that way forever
D
while suzanne holds the mirror

F#m
and you want to travel with her
G
and you want to travel blind
D
and you think maybe you’ll trust her
Em D
for you’ve touched her perfect body with your mind .
