Suzanne
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
GSuzanne takes you down
To her place by the river,
You can Amhear the boats go by,
You can spend the night beside her,
And you Gknow that she's half crazy,
And that's why you want to be there;
And she Bmfeeds you tea and oranges
That come Call the way from China;
And Gjust when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her,
She Amgets you on her wave-length
And lets the river answer
That you've Galways been her lover.
Refrain
And you Bmwant to travel with her,
And you Cwant to travel blind,
And you Gknow that you can trust her,
For you've Amtouched her perfect body
With your Gmind.
Couplet
And GJesus was a sailor
When He walked upon the water,
And he Amspent a long time watching
From a lonely wooden tower,
And when Ghe knew for certain
Only drowning men could see Him,
He said, Bm"All men shall be brothers, then,
Until the sea shall free them,"
But He Chimself was broken
Long before the sky would open,
Forsaken, Calmost human,
He sank Gbeneath your wisdom
Like a Amstone.
Refrain
And you Bmwant to travel with Him,
And you Cwant to travel blind,
And you Gthink you maybe trust Him,
For He's Amtouched your perfect body
With His Gmind.
Couplet
Suzanne takes you down
To her place by the river,
You can hear the boats go by,
You can spend the night forever,
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.
Refrain
And you want to travel with her,
And you want to travel blind,
And you think maybe you'll trust her,
For you've touched her perfect body
With your Gmind.
