[E]
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river.
You [F#m] can hear the boats go by.
You can spend the night [D] [F#m] beside her.
And [E] you know that she's half crazy, but that's why you want to be there.
And [G#m] she feeds you tea and oranges that [A] come all the way from China.
And [E] just when you mean to tell her that you [F#m] have no love to give her,
[E] then she gets you on her wavelength.
[F#m] And she lets the river answer that [E] you've always been her lover.
And [G#m] you want to travel with her.
And [A] you want to travel blind.
And [E] you know that she will trust you, for [F#m] you've touched her perfect body with [E] your mind.
And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water.
And [F#m] he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower.
[E] And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him,
he [G#m] said all men will be sailors then [A] until the sea shall free them.
[E] But he himself was broken [F#m] long before the sky would open.
[E] Forsaken, almost human, he [F#m] sank beneath your wisdom like a [E] stone.
And [G#m] you want to travel with him.
[A] And you want to travel blind.
And [E] you think maybe you'll trust him, for [F#m] he's touched your perfect body [E] with his mind.
Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river.
She [F#m] is wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters.
And [E] the sun pours down like honey on our Lady of the Harbor.
And she [G#m] shows you where to look [A] among the garbage and the flowers.
There [E] are heroes in the seaweed.
There [F#m] are children in the morning.
They [E] are leaning out for love.
They will [F#m] lean that way forever while [E] Suzanne holds the mirror.
And [G#m] you want to travel with her.
And [A] you want to travel blind.
And [E]
you can trust her, for [F#m] she's touched your perfect body with [E] her mind.
