Introduction:
G A G D A
Like crippled ships that made it through the storms and finally reached a quiet shore
Em A D G A
The homeless found a home on Susan's floor
D
I didn't feel so cold and tired stretched out before her fire
A
Rolling smokes and drinking up her wine
G D G D A
And I remember candle light and singing till we could not sing no more
Em A D G A
And falling warm asleep on Susan's floor
D
Well now that my song is sweeter I think I'd like to greet her
A
And thank her for the favors that she gave
G D G D A
A stranger I came my head bowed in the rain to her door
Em A D
I sat and sang my songs on Susan's floor
G A G D A D
In the morning I'd go on buying kingdoms with my songs
A Em A D
Knowing I'd be back in just a while warming in the sunlight of her smile
D
Well lots of time and songs have passed I catch myself looking back
D
Reliving all the wonder of those nights
G D G D A
That's where I'd be today if I had only stayed one night more
Em A D
And sang another song on Susan's floor
Like crippled ships that made it through the storms and finally reached a quiet shore
