Suzannah

Em                  G
The crystal covered hall
Em                             G
Shining with the color of the dark
Em                 C
Reflections of her hair
        D       Em
Hanging long, flowing
        C                 Em
With the wind he let in blowing
D           C
Suzannah, sitting on the floor
D                 C
Counting all the seconds
                            Em
It would take to reach the door

The priestly man is lit
He knows that he's not it
The one she's waiting for
Maybe for forever
The one she thinks will save her
Suzannah, locking up so tight
All the tiny feelings
She would need to make her cry

C
You'll never be so strong
              D
That you can carry all her world
C
You'll never stay so long
              D
That you can mop up all the hurt
    Em
Of Suzannah

A suddent urgent wail
Bursting from a canary in pain
Roof above them crumbling
Closing in, falling
Wind around the lovers blowing
Suzannah, making her escape
Taking nothing with her
But her green and waxy cape

C
"I'm sorry" he will say
            D
But he will not believe it
      C
"I'm sorry too" she'll say
         D
Neither one will mean it
   Em
Suzannah
  D      Em
Suzannah
