[Intro]
C C/G C
[Verse 1]
G
Suzanne takes you down
G
To a place by the river
Am
You can see the boats go by
Am
You could spend the night forever
G
And you know that she's half crazy
G
And that's why you want to be there
Bm
And she feeds you tea and oranges
C
That come all the way from China
G
And just when you mean to tell her
G
That you have no love to give her
Am
She takes you in her arms
Am
And she lets the river answer
G
That you've always been her lover
Bm
And you want to travel with her
C
And you want to travel blind
G
And you think you'll maybe trust her
Am
'Cause she's touched you
Am
And she's moved you
G C/G
And she's kind
[Verse 2]
G
And Jesus was a sailor
G
When he walked up the water
Am
He spent a long time watching
Am
From a lonely wooden tower
G
And when He knew for certain
G
Only drowning men could see Him
Bm
He said, "All men shall be sailors then
C
Until the sea shall free them"
G
He Himself was broken
G
Long before the sky was open;
Am
Forsaken, almost human
G C/G
He sank beneath your wisdom like a star
Bm
And you want to travel with Him
C
And you want to travel blind
G
And you think you'll maybe trust Him
Am
'Cause He's touched you
Am
And He's moved you
G C/G
And He's kind
[Verse 3]
G
Suzanne takes your hand
G
And she leads you to the river
Am
She's wearing rags and feathers
Am
From Salvation Army counters
G
And the sun pours down like honey
G
On our lady of the harbor
Bm
And she shows you where to look
C
Beneath the garbage and the flowers
G
There are heroes in the seaweed
G
There are children in the morning
Am
They're leaning out for love
Am
And they will lean that way forever
G
While Suzanne holds the mirror
Bm
And you want to travel with her
C
And you want to travel blind
G
And you think you'll maybe trust her
Am
'Cause she's touched you
Am
And she's moved you
G C/G G
And she's kind
