Gordon Lightfoot - On Susan's Floor
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] F  
[VERSE 1:]
Like crippled ships that made Git
Through a Fstorm and finally Creached a quiet Gshore
The homeless found a home on Susan's Cfloor
[VERSE 2:]
Didn't feel so cold and tired
Stretched out before her fire
Rolling smokes and drinking up her Gwine
And FI remember Ccandlelight
And Fsinging 'til we Ccould not sing no Gmore
Then falling warm asleep on Susan's Cfloor
[VERSE 3:]
Well, now that my song is sweeter
I think I'd like to greet her
And thank her for the favours that she Ggave
A Fstranger I Ccame
My Fhead bowed in the Crain to her Gdoor
I sat and sang my songs on Susan's Cfloor
[BRIDGE:]
In the Fmorning I'd go Gon
Buying Fkingdoms with my EmsongsDm  C  
Knowing I'd be back in just aGwhile
Warming in the sunlight of her CsmileCadd9  F  G  
[INSTRUMENTAL:]           C      G    F    C    F    C      G    Dm7    G   C   Cadd9   F  G  
[VERSE 4:]
Well, Clots of time and songs have passed
I catch myself just looking back
Reliving all the wonder of those Gnights
That's Fwhere I'd be toCday
If FI had only Cstayed one night Gmore
Sang another song on Susan's Cfloor
[VERSE 5:]
Like Fcrippled ships that made Git
Through a Fstorm and finally Creached a quiet Gshore
The Dm7homeless found a Ghome on Susan's Cfloor
[OUTRO:]   F     G    F     C    F     Em    Dm7  C
