A
Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river..
D
you can hear the boats go by..you can spend the
night forever.
A
And you know the girl's half crazy and that's why
you want to be there.
C#m
D
And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the
A
way from China.
#2.
A
And just when you want to tell her that you have no
D
love to give her..she gets you on her wavelength
A
and lets the river answer..that you've always been
her lover.
A
And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water
D
and He spent a long time watching from the lonely wooden
tower.
A
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could
C#m
D
see him he said, "All men are sailors then until the sea
shall free them."
A
But He himself was broken, long before the sky would open.
D
Forsaken, almost human, He sank beneath your wisdom like
A
A stone.
C#m
D
And you want to travel with Him and you want to travel blind.
A
E
And you think that you may trust Him for He's touched your
D
E
A
perfect body with His mind.

Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river..you can hear
the boats that go by, you can spend the night forever.
A
And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor.
C#m
D
And she shows you where to look amid the garbage and the flowers.
A
There are heroes in the seaweed..there are children in the morning
D
They are leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever,
A
while Suzanne holds her mirror.
