Suzanne Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Suz[Bm]anne [D]ta[G]kes yo[D]u down
to her place near the river
You can [G]hear the boats go by,
you can spend the night forever
And you [D]know that she's half- crazy but
that's why you want to be there
And she [F#m]feeds you tea [D]an d oranges
that [G]come all the way from China
And just [D]when you mean to tell her that
you [G]have no love to give her
Then he [D]gets you on her wavelength
And she [G]lets the river answer that you've
[D]always been her [G]lover[D]
And you [F#m]want to travel with her,
and you [G]want to travel blind
[Asus4]And you know that[D] she
will trust you
For you've [G]touched her per
[Asus4]fect body with your mind[D]
[Em]And Je[D]sus was a sailor when he
walked upon the water
And [G]he spent a long time watching
from his lonely wooden tower
And [D]when he knew for certain only
drowning men could see him
[F#m]He said all men will be sailors then
[G]un til the sea shall free them
But [D]he himself was broken,
long be[G]fore the sky would open
For[D]saken, almost human,
he [G]sank beneath your wisdom like [D]a stone
And [F#m]you want to travel with him,
and [G]you want to travel blind
And [D]you think you maybe you'll trust him
For [G]he's touched your per
[Asus4]fect body with her [D]mind
Now, Suzanne takes your hand
and she leads you to the river
She's [G]wearing rags and feathers
from Salvation Army counters
And [D]the sun pours down like honey
on our lady of the harbor
And she [F#m]shows you where to look among
the [G]garbage and the flowers
[D]There are heroes in the seaweed,
there [G]are children in the morning
They are [D]leaning out for love and they wil
[G]lean that way forever
While Su[D]zanne holds her mirror
[G]And[D] you want t[F#m]o travel with her,[D]
and [G]you want to travel blind
[D]And you know that you can trust her
For [G]she's touched your per[Asus4]fect
body [D]with her [G]mind
