1. Suzanne


Verse 1:

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


Chorus:

     G#m               A
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
     E
And you know that she will trust you,
       F#m                E
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind


Verse 2:

   E
And Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water
    F#m
And he spent a long time watching, from his lonely wooden tower
   E
And when he knew for certain, only drowning men could see him
     G#m              A
he said 'All men will be sailors then, until the sea shall free them
   E              F#m
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open
  E          F#m               E
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone


Chorus:

     G#m               A
And you want to travel with him, and you want to travel blind
     E
And you think maybe you'll trust him
      F#m                E
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.



Verse 3:

  E
Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river
    F#m
She is wearing rags and feathers, from Salvation Army counters
    E
And the sun pours down like honey, on our lady of the harbour
    G#m                A
And she shows you where to look, among the garbage and the flowers
     E                F#m
There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning
    E                 F#m
They are leaning out for love, and they will lean that way forever
    E
While Suzanne holds the mirror


Chorus:

      G#m                       A
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
     E
And you know that you can trust her,
       F#m               E
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind

2. Master Song


Capo 3rd fret

Intro:

Em G
Em G

Verse 1:

   F             Em
I believe that you heard your master sing
  F       Em
when I was sick in bed.
   F           Em
I suppose that he told you everything
    F           Em
that I keep locked away in my head.
   F        Am
Your master took you travelling,
     C           D
well at least that's what you said.
   G   G/F#   G   G/F#
And now do you come back to bring
   C        B
your prisoner wine and bread?

Em G

Verse 2:

   F        Em
You met him at some temple, where
   F            Em
they take your clothes at the door.
    F        Em
He was just a numberless man in a chair
 F              Em
who'd just come back from the war.
    F         Am
And you wrap up his tired face in your hair
    C          D
and he hands you the apple core.
     G      G/F#    G     G/F#
Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare
      C              B
of all the kisses we put on some time before.

Em G

Verse 3:

    F         Em
And he gave you a German Shepherd to walk
    F           Em
with a collar of leather and nails,
    F            Em
and he never once made you explain or talk
   F          Em
about all of the little details,
     F         Am
such as who had a word and who had a rock,
  C            D
and who had you through the mails.
     G    G/F#    G    G/F#
Now your love is a secret all over the block,
    C                   B
and it never stops not even when your master fails

Em G

Verse 4:
    F         Em
And he took you up in his aeroplane,
     F        Em
which he flew without any hands,
     F        Em
and you cruised above the ribbons of rain
   F             Em
that drove the crowd from the stands.
     F           Am
Then he killed the lights in a lonely Lane
    C        D
and, an ape with angel glands,
 G    G/F#  G    G/F#
erased the final wisps of pain
     C        B
with the music of rubber bands.

Em G

Verse 5:

   F       Em
And now I hear your master sing,
   F        Em
you kneel for him to come.
   F     Em
His body is a golden string
      F        Em
that your body is hanging from.
  F     Am
His body is a golden string,
  C       D
my body has grown numb.
  G   G/F#    G   G/F#
Oh now you hear your master sing,
    C       B
your shirt is all undone.

Em G

Verse 6:

   F        Em
And will you kneel beside this bed
    F         Em
that we polished so long ago,
 F         Em
before your master chose instead
 F        Em
to make my bed of snow?
   F            Am
Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red
       C        D
and you're speaking far too low.
   G    G/F#      G   G/F#
No I can't make out what your master said
 C        B
before he made you go.

Em G

Verse 7:

    F          Em
Then I think you're playing far too rough
    F           Em
for a lady who's been to the moon;
   F          Em
I've lain by this window long enough
    F        Em
to get used to an empty room.
     F           Am
And your love is some dust in an old man's cough
    C           D
who is tapping his foot to a tune,
      G     G/F#   G    G/F#
and your thighs are a ruin, you want too much,
    C               B
let's say you came back some time too soon.

Em G

Verse 8:

  F        Em
I loved your master perfectly
  F           Em
I taught him all that he knew.
    F           Em
He was starving in some deep mystery
    F            Em
like a man who is sure what is true.
    F          Am
And I sent you to him with my guarantee
     C          D
I could teach him something new,
    G    G/F#      G   G/F#
and I taught him how you would long for me
  C                    B
no matter what he said no matter what you'd do.

Em G

Verse 9:

  F             Em
I believe that you heard your master sing
   F       Em
while I was sick in bed,
   F           Em
I'm sure that he told you everything
    F           Em
I must keep locked away in my head.
   F        Am
Your master took you travelling,
     C          D
well at least that's what you said,
   G   G/F#   G    G/F#
And now do you come back to bring
    C         B
your prisoner wine and bread?

4. The Stranger Song



Tuning: down one tone (D G C F A D)

Intro:

F#sus4 F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4 F#m

Verse 1:

F#m  D/A        C    D/A    A
It's true that all the men you knew were dealers
                 E
Who said they were through with dealing
              F#m F#sus4 F#m
Every time you gave them shelter
  E       Esus4 E
I know that kind of man
       F#m      F#sus4 F#m
It's hard to hold the hand of anyone
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
Who is reaching for the sky  just to surrender
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender

Verse 2:

F#m  D/A        C    D/A    A
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
                 E
You find he did not leave you very much
     F#m F#sus4 F#m
Not even laughter
   E      Esus4 E       F#m
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
   F#sus4 F#m    E
That is so high and wild
          E Esus4  F#m F#sus4 F#m
He'll never need to deal another
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger

Verse 3:

F#m  D/A        C    D/A
And then leaning on your window sill
   A
He'll say one day you caused his will
  E                  F#m F#sus4 F#m
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
     E        Esus4 E
And then taking from his wallet
    F#m F#sus4 F#m
An old schedule of trains, he'll say
    E     Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
I told you when I came I was a stranger
    E     Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
I told you when I came I was a stranger

Verse 4:

F#m  D/A     C    D/A
But now another stranger seems
  A
To want you to ignore his dreams
  E                  F#m F#sus4 F#m
As though they were the burden of some other
     E        Esus4 E
O you've seen that man before
     F#m       F#sus4 F#m
His golden arm dispatching cards
       E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
But now it's rusted from the elbow to the finger
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter

Verse 5:

F#m  D/A      C    D/A   A
Ah you hate to watch another tired man

Lay down his hand
       E              F#m F#sus4 F#m
Like he was giving up the holy game of
  E
And while he talks his dreams to sleep
   F#m       F#sus4 F#m
You notice there's a highway
    E         Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
That is curling up like smoke above his shoulder
    E         Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
It's curling just like smoke above his shoulder

Verse 6:

F#m  D/A      C    D/A
You tell him to come in sit down
  A
But something makes you turn around
   E               F#m F#sus4 F#
The door is open you can't close your shelter
   E       Esus  E
You try the handle of the road
 F#m      F#sus4 F#m
It opens do not be afraid
   E       Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
   E       Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
It's you my love, you who are the stranger

Verse 7:

F#m  D/A      C    D/A
Well, I've been waiting, I was sure
   A                   E
We'd meet between the trains we're waiting for
              F#m F#sus4 F#m
I think it's time to board another
 E         Esus  E        F#m
Please understand, I never had a secret chart
F#sus4 F#m    E
To get me to the heart of this
 Esus E   F#m F#sus4 F#m
Or any other matter
   E       Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
When he talks like this you don't know what he's after
   E       Esus  E    F#m F#sus4 F#m
When he speaks like this, you don't know what he's after

Verse 8:

F#m  D/A      C    D/A
Let's meet tomorrow if you choose
 A
Upon the shore, beneath the bridge
   E                 F#m F#sus4 F#m
That they are building on some endless river
     E
Then he leaves the platform
Esus4 E     F#m
For the sleeping car that's warm
   F#sus4 F#m  E  Esus4   E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
You realize, he's only advertising one more shelter
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
And it comes to you, he never was a stranger
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
And you say okay the bridge or someplace later

Verse 9:

F#m  D/A        C    D/A    A
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
                 E
You find he did not leave you very much
     F#m F#sus4 F#m
Not even laughter
   E      Esus4 E       F#m
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
   F#sus4 F#m    E
That is so high and wild
          E Esus4  F#m F#sus4 F#m
He'll never need to deal another
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
    E        Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger

Verse 10:

F#m  D/A        C    D/A
And then leaning on your window sill
   A
He'll say one day you caused his will
  E                  F#m F#sus4 F#m
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter

I told you when I came I was a stranger

I told you when I came I was a stranger
    E     Esus4 E      F#m F#sus4 F#m F#sus4
I told you when I came I was a stranger

5. Sisters of Mercy



Capo on 2nd fret


Verse 1:

    A     D     A     E     A   D  A
Oh the Sisters of Mercy they are not departed or gone
     C#m     G#m    C#m      G#m      E  Esus4 E
They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on
     D        A      G     F#m       E Esus4 E
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
   A      D     A        E      A   D
Oh I hope you run into them you who've been traveling so long

D  E

Verse 2:

  A       D     A       E      A   D  A
Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control
   C#m      G#m     C#m      G#m     E  Esus4 E
It begins with your family, but soon it comes round to your soul
     D         A     G      F#m      E   Esus4 E
Well I've been where you're hanging I think I can see how you're pinned
       A     D     A     E        A    D
When you're not feeling holy your loneliness says that you've sinned

D  E

Verse 3:

     A     D     A  E      A   D  A
They lay down beside me I made my confession to them
   C#m       G#m    C#m     G#m     E  Esus4 E
They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem
    D     A       G      F#m     E Esus4 E
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
     A       D       A      E     A   D
They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem

D  E

Verse 4:

    A        D     A      E    A   D  A
When I left they were sleeping I hope you run into them soon
   C#m     G#m      C#m     G#m     E  Esus4 E
Dont turn on the lights you can read their address by the moon
    D       A      G       F#m      E  Esus4 E
And you won't make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night

D  E
      A      D      A       E      A
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right
      A      D      A       E      A
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right

6. So Long, Marianne



Verse 1:

   A                Bm
Come over to the window, my little darling
D               A
I'd like to try to read your palm
G                  D
I used to think I was some sort of gypsy boy
F#m             E  Esus4 E E7
  before I let you take me home


Chorus:

  A         F#m
Now so long, Marianne,  It's time that we began

to laugh   and cry  and cry   and laugh about it all again


Verse 2:

     A         Bm
Well you know that I love to live with you
D                A
 but you make me forget so very much
G             D
 I forget to pray for the angels
       F#m            Esus4 E E7
and then the angels forget to pray for us


Chorus:

  A         F#m
Now so long, Marianne,  It's time that we began
  E  Esus4   E E7   E Esus4    E   E7   A    Asus4
to laugh   and cry  and cry   and laugh about it all again


Verse 3:

  A        Bm
We met when we were almost young
D             A
 deep in the green lilac park
G                D
 You held on to me like I was a crucifix
F#m                 E  Esus4 E E7
  as we went kneeling through the dark


Chorus:

  A         F#m
Now so long, Marianne,  It's time that we began
  E  Esus4   E E7   E Esus4    E   E7   A    Asus4
to laugh   and cry  and cry   and laugh about it all again


Verse 4:

   A                 Bm
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now
D            A
 then why do I feel so alone
G                 D
 I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
  F#m           E Esus4 E E7
is fastening my ankle to a stone


Chorus:

Oh, you are really such a pretty one
D                  A
 I see you've gone and changed your name again
G               D
 And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
  F#m           E Esus4 E E7
to wash my eyelids in the rain


Chorus:

Now so long, Marianne,  It's time that we began

The stories of the street are mine, the Spanish voices laugh
Am         C            Em7         Bm
The Cadillacs go creeping now through the night and the poison gas
  Am       F         G   F#   B
And I lean from my window sill in this old hotel I chose
  E        A    E        D   A   Am
Yes one hand on my suicide, one hand on the rose

Verse 2:

 Am           C      Em7      Bm
I know you've heard it's over now and war must surely come
   Am       C           Em       Bm
The cities they are broke in half and the middle men are gone
  Am       F        G    F#   B
But let me ask you one more time, o children of the dusk
     E        A         E        D   A   Am
All these hunters who are shrieking now oh do they speak for us?

Verse 3:

   Am        C          Em7  Bm
And where do all these highways go, now that we are free?
  Am       C            Em7      Bm
Why are the armies marching still that were coming home to me?
  Am       F       G     F#   B
O lady with your legs so fine, o stranger at your wheel
     E        A          E        D   A   Am
You are locked into your suffering and your pleasures are the seal

Verse 4:

  Am       C         Em7       Bm
The age of lust is giving birth, and both the parents ask
  Am         C       Em7        Bm
The nurse to tell them fairy tales on both sides of the glass
  Am       F        G     F#   B
And now the infant with his cord is hauled in like a kite
  E          A      E         D   A   Am
And one eye filled with blueprints, one eye filled with night

Verse 5:

 Am       C      Em7        Bm
O come with me my little one, we will find that farm
  Am         C        Em7         Bm
And grow us grass and apples there and keep all the animals warm
  Am       F          G    F#  B
And if by chance I wake at night and I ask you who I am
 E        A           E          D   A   Am
O take me to the slaughterhouse, I will wait there with the lamb

Verse 6:

   Am       C      Em7       Bm
With one hand on the hexagram and one hand on the girl
 Am      C         Em7       Bm
I balance on a wishing well that all men call the world
  Am       F         G   F#     B
We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky
  E        A        E        D   A   Am
And lost among the subway crowds I try to catch your eye

10. One of Us Cannot Be Wrong


Intro:

A A A A

Verse 1:

 A         Bm   Bm
 I lit a thin green candle
 D      D     A  A
 to make you jealous of me
     A        A      Bm    Bm
 but the room just filled up with mosquitoes
    D      D     E    E
 they heard that my body was free.
    F#m    F#m    C#m      C#m
 Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
    D     D      A   A
 and I put it in your little shoe
   Bm     Bm     G       G
 and then I confess that I tortured the dress
      Bm      A       G     G
 that you wore for the world to look through.


 A A A A

Verse 2:

  A     A      Bm   Bm
 I showed my heart to the doctor
 D      D      A   A
 he said I'd just have to quit
   A      A     Bm    Bm
 then he wrote himself a perscription
   D       D      E    E
 and your name was mentioned in it.
   F#m     F#m    C#m   C#m
 Then he locked himself in a library shelf
      D     D    A   A
 with the details of our honeymoon
    Bm      Bm
 and I hear from the nurse
      G      G
 that he's gotten much worse
     Bm     A    G   G
 and his practice is all in a ruin.


 A A A A

Verse 3:

  A      A       Bm    Bm
 I heard of a saint who had loved you
    D      D      A    A
 So I studied all night in his school
   A        A    Bm    Bm
 he taught that the duty of lovers
    D      D   E    E
 is to tarnish the golden rule.
     F#m    F#m
 And just when I was sure
      C#m      C#m
 that his teachings were pure
   D     D      A    A
 he drowned himself in the pool
   Bm   Bm      G      G
 his body is gone but back here on the lawn
   Bm     A    G   G
 his spirit continues to drool.

 A A A A

Verse 4:

   A   A      Bm   Bm
 An Eskimo showed me a movie
    D    D    A   A
 he'd recently taken of you
   A       A      Bm    Bm
 the poor man could hardly stop shivering,
   D      D      E    E
 his lips and his fingers were blue.
  F#m       F#m
I suppose that he froze
      C#m      C#m
 when the wind took your clothes
    D       D     A
 and I guess he just never got warm
     Bm       Bm      G      G
 but you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
      Bm     A    G   G
 o, please let me come into the storm.
