Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river,
Dm Dm
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her,
C C
And you know that she's half crazy, and that's why you want to be there,
Em F
And she feeds you tea and oranges, that come all the way from China.
C Dm
And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her,
C Dm
She gets you on her wavelength, and lets the river answer
C
That you've always been her lover
Em F
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind.
C
And you know that she will trust you,
Dm C
Cause you touched her perfect body with your mind.
C C
And Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water.
Dm Dm
And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower.
C C
And when he knew for certain, only drowning men could see him,
Em F
He said, " All men will be sailors, then, Until the sea shall free them."
C Dm
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open.

Foresaken, almost human.
Dm C
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone.
Em F
And you want to travel with him, and you want to travel blind.
C
And you think maybe you'll trust him,
Dm C
Cause he touched you perfect body with his mind.
C C
Now, Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river,
Dm Dm
She is wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters,
C C
And the sun pours down like honey, on our lady of the harbour.
Em F
And she shows you where to look, among the garbage and the flowers.
C Dm
There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning.
C Dm
They are leaning out for love, and they will lean that way forever.
C
While Suzanne holds the mirror.
Em F
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind.
C
And you know you can trust her,
Dm C
For shes touched your perfect body with her mind.
