Fairport Convention - Suzanne Chords

[Intro]

[Verse]
D
Suzanne takes you down to a place by the river
        Em
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night forever
        D
And you know that she's half crazy, that's why you want to be there
        F#m                                 G
And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China
     D
Just when you want to tell her, that you have no love to give her
    Em
She gets you on her wavelength and she lets the river answer
            D
That you've always been her lover
        F#m                              G
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
        D
And you think you maybe trust her
        Em                                 D
For she touched your perfect body with her mind

[Verse]
    D
And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water
       Em
And he spent a long time watching from a lonely wooden tower
    D
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him
         F#m                             G
He said "All men shall be sailors then until the sea shall free them"
    D
And he himself was broken long before the sky would open
   Em                                                      D
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
        F#m                             G
And you want to travel with him and you want to travel blind
        D
And you think you maybe trust him
    Em                                    D
For he touched your perfect body with his mind

[Verse]
D
Suzanne takes you down to a place by the river
        Em
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night forever
        D
And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbour
        F#m                              G
And she shows you where to look amid the garbage and the flowers
          D
There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning
        Em
They're leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever
        D
While Suzanne holds the mirror
        F#m                             G
And you want to travel with her and you want to travel blind
        D
And you think you maybe trust her
        Em                                 D
For she touched your perfect body with her mind
