Lyrics author: Leonard Cohen

	B
Suz	anne takes you down to her place near the river

	E
You can	hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her

	B
And you	know that she's half-crazy, but that's why you wanna be there

	Ebm	E
And she	feeds you tea & oranges that come	all the way from China

	B	E
And just	when you mean to tell her that you	have no love to give her

	B	C#m
Then she	gets you on her wavelength & she	lets the river answer

	B
That you've	always been her lover

		Ebm	E
	And you	want to travel with her, and you	want to travel blind

		B
	And you	know that she will trust you,

		E	B
	For you've	touched her perfect body with your	mind

	B
And	Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water

	E
And he	spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower

	B
And	when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him he said

	Ebm	E
	'All men will be sailors then, un	til the sea shall free them'

	B	E
But	he himself was broken, long be	fore the sky would open

	B	C#m	B
For	saken, almost human, he	sank beneath your wisdom like a	stone

		Ebm	E
	And you	want to travel with him, and you	want to travel blind

		B
	And you	think maybe you'll trust him,

		E	B
	For he's	touched your perfect body with his	mind

	B
Now	Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river

	E
She is	wearing rags & feathers from Salvation Army counter

	B
And the	sun pours down like honey on Our Lady of the Harbour

	Ebm	E
And she	shows you where to look among the	garbage & the flowers

	B	E
There are	heroes in the seaweed, there are	children in the morning

	B	C#m
They are	leaning out for love, & they will	lean that way forever

	B
While	Suzanne holds the mirror

		Ebm	E
	And you	want to travel with her, and you	want to travel blind

		B
	And you	know you can trust her,

		E	B
	For she's	touched your perfect body with her	mind
