Suzanne chords by Leonard Cohen (Ver. 2)

Chords with lyrics

SUZANNE			LEONARD COHEN

   Chord diagramE MajorE
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
	 Chord diagramA augmentedA
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her
	 Chord diagramE MajorE
And you know that she's half-crazy, but that's why you wanna be there
	 Chord diagramG# minorG#m				   Chord diagramA augmentedA
And she feeds you tea & oranges that come all the way from China
	  Chord diagramE MajorE				     Chord diagramA augmentedA
And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her
	  Chord diagramE MajorE				   Chord diagramF# minorF#m
Then she gets you on her wavelength & she lets the river answer
	     Chord diagramE MajorE
That you've always been her lover

Chorus
------
	 Chord diagramG# minorG#m				 Chord diagramA augmentedA
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
	 Chord diagramE MajorE
And you know that she will trust you,
	     Chord diagramA augmentedA					Chord diagramE MajorE
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind
And (Chord diagramE MajorE)Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water
And he (Chord diagramA augmentedA)spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
And (Chord diagramE MajorE)when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him he said
(Chord diagramG# minorG#m)'All men will be sailors then, un(Chord diagramA augmentedA)til the sea shall free them'
But (Chord diagramE MajorE)he himself was broken, long be(Chord diagramA augmentedA)fore the sky would open
For(Chord diagramE MajorE)saken, almost human, he (Chord diagramF# minorF#m)sank beneath your wisdom like a (Chord diagramE MajorE)stone

And you (Chord diagramG# minorG#m)want to travel with him, and you (Chord diagramA augmentedA)want to travel blind
And you (Chord diagramE MajorE)think maybe you'll trust him,
For he's (Chord diagramA augmentedA)touched your perfect body with his (Chord diagramE MajorE)mind

Now (Chord diagramE MajorE)Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river
She is (Chord diagramA augmentedA)wearing rags & feathers from Salvation Army counter
And the (Chord diagramE MajorE)sun pours down like honey on Our Lady of the Harbour
And she (Chord diagramG# minorG#m)shows you where to look among the (Chord diagramA augmentedA)garbage & the flowers
There are (Chord diagramE MajorE)heroes in the seaweed, there are (Chord diagramA augmentedA)children in the morning
They are (Chord diagramE MajorE)leaning out for love, & they will (F#m}lean that way forever
While (Chord diagramE MajorE)Suzanne holds the mirror

And you (Chord diagramG# minorG#m)want to travel with her, and you (Chord diagramA augmentedA)want to travel blind
And you (Chord diagramE MajorE)know you can trust her,
For she's (Chord diagramA augmentedA)touched your perfect body with her (Chord diagramE MajorE)mind
