You can [G#m] hear the boats go by, spend the night forever.
[F#] You know that she's half crazy, that's why you want to be there.
[A#] She feeds you tea and oranges, you [B] come all the way from China.
[F#] That's when you want to tell her, [B] you [F#] have no [G#] love to give [F#] her.
[G#m] She gets you on her way lane, she hits the river and swells.
[F#] If you've always [B] been her [F#] lover, [A#] and you want to travel with her,
[B] and you want to travel blind, and [F#] you think you'll trust her,
for [G#m] she's just your perfect body.
[F#]
Jesus [B] [F#] was a sailor, and he
[G#m] spent a long time watching from his lonely yacht.
[F#] [B] [F#]
[B] [F#]
He [A#] said, all men shall be sailors then, [B] until the sea shall free them.
[F#] [B] He was [F#] broken long before the sky had opened,
[G#m] forsaken almost human.
He sank beneath your stone, [F#] like a stone.
[A#] And you want to travel with him, and [B] you want to travel blind.
And [F#] you think [B] you'll [F#] trust him, [G#m] for he's just your perfect
[F#] body.
He [B] [F#]
takes you down, face by the river, [G#m]
and the [F#] sun pours down like honey,
on our lady of the harbor.
[A#] And she shows you where to look, amid the [Bm] garbage and the flowers.
Love [F#] flows in the same way, and [G#m] the leading out for love,
forever, while [F#] Suzanne holds the mirror.
[A#] And you want to travel with her, [B] and you want to travel blind.
[F#]
[B] Maybe [F#] trust her, for [G#m] you've touched her, but in [F#] the wrong line.
