Album: Songs For The Drunk And Broken Hearted

Capo on 6th fret

Verse 1

C                                    Em
Who’re you when the lights come up
…………….F                                           C                  G
When the music fades & the crowd goes down
C                                                   Em
Where did you land when the spinning stopped
…………..F                                           C    G
Are you far away in another town
Am                                       Em
You were young & the lights were bright
F                                 C                     G
You went dancing into the night
Am                                                Em
You always said it would turn out alright
….F                         G
Suzanne will you tell me if you can

C          G        Dm                              F      G
Suzanne is it everything you wanted
……C            G               Dm
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything
…………………………………F      G
You dreamed it would be
C                                                       Em
You reached for the stars & you touched the sky
F                                                  C                      G
You fell back down & you don’t know why
…………Am            G                                         C
But Suzanne you still shine bright to me

Verse 2

………………C                             Em
You’re the 1st one on & the last one off
F                                             C                     G
Who do you see when the mask comes off
……………..C                                         Em
With your red wine teeth & your smoker’s cough
F                                                            C      G
Suzanne I’m sure you’ve had enough
Am                                              Em
But you never cared for what I had to say
F                                      C                               G
Now you go sleeping all through the day
Am                                       Em
Please don’t dream your life away
…..F                            G
Suzanne would you help me to understand

Suzanne is it everything you wanted
……C            G               Dm
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything
…………………………………F      G
You dreamed it would be
C                                             Em
For time takes everything she likes
F                                     C                          G
& youth’ll leave like a thief in the night
…………Am            G                                         C
But Suzanne you still shine bright to me

Music:

Verse 3

Am                                     Em
Now you’re old & the lights are dim
F                                              C                     G
The band won’t play & the man won’t sing
…………Am                                              Em
All the songs that he sang when you danced with him
…..F                  G
Suzanne can I take you by the hand

C          G        Dm                              F      G
Suzanne is it everything you wanted
……C            G               Dm
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything
…………………………………F      G
You dreamed it would be
C                                           Em
You never knew the rules to the game
F                              C                           G
Drawn in like a moth to the flame
…..Am                 Em                     F
Suzanne it is a crying shame
………….G                                                     C
That they’ll never know your name
