\begin{verse}
|
|
Suz\[E]anne takes you down
|
|
To her place near the river
|
|
You can \[F#m]hear the boats go by
|
|
You can spend the night beside her
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
And you \[E]know that she's half crazy
|
|
But that's why you wanna be there
|
|
And she \[G#m]feeds you tea and oranges
|
|
That come \[A]all the way from China
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
And \[E]just when you mean to tell her
|
|
That you \[F#m]have no love to give her
|
|
Then she \[E]gets you on her wavelength
|
|
And she \[F#m]lets the river answer that you've al\[E]ways been her lover
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{chorus}
|
|
And you \[G#m]want to travel with her
|
|
And you \[A]want to travel blind
|
|
And you \[E]know that she will trust you
|
|
For you've \[F#m]touched her perfect body with your \[E]mind
|
|
\end{chorus}
|

|
\begin{verse}
|
|
And Jesus was a sailor
|
|
When He walked upon the water
|
|
And He spent a long time watching
|
|
From his lonely wooden tower
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
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''
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
But He Himself was broken
|
|
Long before the sky would open
|
|
Forsaken, almost human
|
|
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{chorus}
|
|
And you want to travel with him
|
|
And you want to travel blind
|
|
And you think maybe you'll trust him
|
|
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind
|
|
\end{chorus}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Now Suzanne takes your hand
|
|
And she leads you to the river
|
|
She is wearing rags and feathers
|
|
From Salvation Army counters
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
And the sun pours down like honey
|
|
On our lady of the harbor
|
|
And she shows you where to look
|
|
Among the garbage and the flowers
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse*}
|
|
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
|
|
\end{verse*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{chorus}
|
|
And you want to travel with her
|
|
And you want to travel blind
|
|
And you know that you can trust her
|
|
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind
|
|
