Suzanne
Ton : GEnglish
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 jGust 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.
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.
And GJesus was a sailor
When He walked upon the water,
And he Amspent a long time watching
From a lonely wooden tower,
And whenG he 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 hCimself was broken
Long before the sky would open,
Forsaken, aClmost human,
He sank bGeneath your wisdom
Like a Amstone.
And you Bmwant to travel with Him,
And you Cwant to travel blind,
And you tGhink you maybe trust Him,
For He's tAmouched your perfect body
With His mGind.
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.
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.
