Gordon Lightfoot - On Susan's Floor





CAPO: 2nd Fret







[INTRO:] F 



[VERSE 1:]

                              G 

Like crippled ships that made it

          F                 C               G 

Through a storm and finally reached a quiet shore

                                     C 

The homeless found a home on Susan's floor





[VERSE 2:]



Didn't feel so cold and tired



Stretched out before her fire

                                   G 

Rolling smokes and drinking up her wine

    F          C 

And I remember candlelight

    F               C                 G 

And singing 'til we could not sing no more

                                    C 

Then falling warm asleep on Susan's floor





[VERSE 3:]



Well, now that my song is sweeter



I think I'd like to greet her

                                       G 

And thank her for the favours that she gave

  F          C 

 A stranger I came

   F                 C           G 

My head bowed in the rain to her door

                                   C 

I sat and sang my songs on Susan's floor





[BRIDGE:]

       F              G 

In the morning I'd go on

       F                Em   Dm  C 

Buying kingdoms with my songs

                             G 

Knowing I'd be back in just awhile

                               C     Cadd9  F  G 

Warming in the sunlight of her smile





[INSTRUMENTAL:] C          G    F  C  F  C  G    Dm7  G  C  Cadd9  F  G 





[VERSE 4:]

      C 

Well, lots of time and songs have passed



I catch myself just looking back

                                 G 

Reliving all the wonder of those nights

       F              C 

That's where I'd be today

   F          C                G 

If I had only stayed one night more

                             C 

Sang another song on Susan's floor





[VERSE 5:]

     F                        G 

Like crippled ships that made it

          F                 C               G 

Through a storm and finally reached a quiet shore

    Dm7              G               C 

The homeless found a home on Susan's floor





[OUTRO:] F  G   F  C   F  Em   Dm7  C 

By helping UG you make the world better... and earn IQ
