#1.
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.

#3.
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.

BRIDGE:
        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.

#3.
A                                                         D
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.
