E                Esus4         E            Esus4
Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river
         F#m             F#sus4
You can hear the boats go by
         F#m             F#sus4
You can spend the night forever
          E                Esus4
And you know that she's half crazy
          E                Esus4
And that's why you wanna be there
           G#m               G#sus4
And she feeds you tea and oranges
           A                Asus4
That come all the way from China
          E                Esus4
And just when you mean to tell her
         F#m             F#sus4
That you have no love to give her
          E                Esus4
Then she gets you on her wavelength
         F#m             F#sus4
And she lets the river answer
          E                Esus4
That you've always been her lover

[Chorus]
        G#m             G#sus4
And you want to travel with her
           A                Asus4
And you want to travel blind
          E                Esus4
And you know that she will trust you
         F#m             F#sus4               E
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind

Yeah

[Verse 2]
E                Esus4  
Now Jesus was a sailor
         E            Esus4
When he walked upon the water
         F#m             F#sus4
And he spent a long time watching
         F#m             F#sus4
From his lonely wooden tower
          E                Esus4
And when he knew for certain
          E                Esus4
Only drowning men could see him
           G#m               G#sus4
He said "All men will be sailors then
           A                Asus4
Until the sea shall free them"
          E                Esus4
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
         F#m             F#sus4
But he himself was broken
          E                Esus4
Long before the sky would open
  F#m             F#sus4
Forsaken, almost human
          E                Esus4
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

[Chorus]
        G#m             G#sus4
And you want to travel with him
           A                Asus4
And you want to travel blind
          E                Esus4
'Cause you think maybe you can trust him
         F#m             F#sus4               E
'Cause he's touched your perfect body with his mind

Yeah

[Verse 3]
E                Esus4 
Now Suzanne takes your hand
         E            Esus4
And she leads you to the river
         F#m             F#sus4
She is wearing rags and feathers
         F#m             F#sus4
From Salvation Army counters
          E                Esus4
And the sun pours down like honey
          E                Esus4
On our lady of the harbour
           G#m               G#sus4
And she shows you where to look
           A                Asus4
Between the garbage and the flowers
          E                Esus4
There are heroes in the seaweed
         F#m             F#sus4
There are children in the morning
          E                Esus4
They are leaning, leaning out for love
         F#m             F#sus4
And they will lean that way forever
          E                Esus4
While Suzanne holds the mirror

[Chorus]
        G#m             G#sus4
And you want to travel with her
           A                Asus4
And you want to travel blind
          E                Esus4
'Cause you know that maybe you can trust her
         F#m             F#sus4            E
She's touched your perfect body with her mind
