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
