Susan takes you down to her place near the river
[Fm] You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
[Eb] And you know that she's half crazy
And that's why you want to be there
[Gm] And she feeds you tea and oranges
[Ab] That came all the way from China
[Eb] And just when you want to tell her
That you have no love to give her
[Fm] She gets you on her wavelength
And lets the river answer
[Eb] That you've always been her lover
And [Gm] you want to travel with her
And [Ab] you want to travel light
[Eb] And you think you maybe trust her
[Fm] Cause she's touched your perfect body
[Eb] With her mind
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked up on the water
[Ab] And he spent a long time watching
From a lonely wooden tower
[Eb] And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men would see
He [Gm] said all men shall be sailors then
[Ab] Until the sea shall free them
[Eb] But himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
[Ab] Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom
[Eb] Like a stone
[Gm] And you want to travel with him
And [Ab] you want to travel blind
[Eb] And you think you maybe trust him
[Fm] For he's touched your perfect body
[Eb] With his mind
So then, it's you turn
To her place by the river
[Fm] You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside [Eb] her
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbor
[Gm] And she shows you where to look
[Ab] Among the garbage and the flowers
[Eb] There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
[Fm] They are leaning out for love
They will live that way forever
[Eb] While Susan holds her mirror
[Gm] And you want to travel with her
And [Ab] you want to travel blind
[Eb] And you think maybe you'll trust her
[Ab] For you've touched her perfect body
[Eb] With your mind
[Fm] You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
[Eb] And you know that she's half crazy
And that's why you want to be there
[Gm] And she feeds you tea and oranges
[Ab] That came all the way from China
[Eb] And just when you want to tell her
