[F#] [B] [F#] [B]
[F#] [B]
[F#]Suzanne takes you down to a place near the river
[Abm]You can hear the boats go by
[Abm]You can spend the night forever
[F#]And you know that she's half crazy
[F#]But that's why you want to be there
[A#]And she feeds you tea and oranges
[B]That come all the way from China
[F#]And just when you want to tell her
[F#]That you have no love to give her
[Abm]Then she gets you on her wavelength
[Abm]And she lets the river answer
[F#]That you've always been her lover
[A#]And you want to travel with her
[B]And you want to travel blind
[F#]And you think that maybe you'll trust her
F[Abm]or she's touched your perfect body wi[F#m]th her mind.
[F#]And Jesus was a sailor
[F#]When He walked upon the water
[Ab]And He spent a long time watching
[Abm]From His lonely wooden tower
[F#]And when He knew for certain
[F#]Only drowning men could see Him
[A#]He said "All men shall be sailors then
[B]Until the sea shall free them"
[F#]But He Himself was broken
[F#]Long before the sky would open
[Ab]Forsaken, almost human
[Ab]He sank beneath your wisdom[F#] like a stone
[A#]And you want to travel with Him
[B]And you want to travel blind
[F#]And you think maybe you'll trust Him
[Ab]For He's touched your perfect body with Hi[F#]s mind.
[F#]Suzanne takes you down to a place near the river
[Ab]You can hear the boats go by
[Ab]You can spend the night forever
[F#]And the sun pours down like honey
[F#]On our lady of the harbour
[A#]And she shows you where to look
Amid t[B]he garbage and the flowers
[F#]There are heroes in the seaweed
[F#]There are children in the morning
[Abm]And they're leaning out for love
[Abm]And they will lean that way forever
[F#]While Suzanne holds the mirror
[A#]And you want to travel with her
[B]And you want to travel blind
[F#]And you think maybe you'll trust her
F[Abm]or you've touched her perfect body with yo[F#]ur mind
