Intro: E . . . Esus4 E|E . . . Esus4 E|E . . . Esus4 E|
E ESuzanne takes you down
E ETo her place near the river
F#m F#mYou can hear the boats go by
F#m F#mAnd you can spend the night beside her
E EAnd you know that she's half crazy
E EBut that's why you want to be there
G#m G#mAnd she feeds you tea and oranges
A AThat come all the way from China
E EAnd just when you mean to tell her
F#m F#mThat you have no love to give her
E EShe gets you on her wavelength
F#m F#mAnd she lets the river answer
E E Esus4 Eyou've always been her lover
G#m G#mAnd you want to travel with her
A AAnd you want to travel blind
E EAnd you know that she will trust you
F#m F#m EFor you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From a lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said: "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you know he will find you
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Suzanne takes your hand now
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Amid the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will find you
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
