[Intro] D A C G [Verse] D A A lonely mother gazing out of her window C G Staring at a son that she just can't touch D A If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side C G But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much D A But all the praying just ain't helping at all C G 'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble D A So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how C G Another body laying cold in the gutter Listen to me [Chorus] D A Don't go chasing waterfalls C Please stick to the rivers G And the lakes that you're used to D I know that you're gonna have it your way A Or nothing at all C G But I think you're moving too fast [Verse] D A Little precious has a natural obsession C G For temptation but he just can't see D A She gives him loving that his body can't handle C G But all he can say is "baby it's good to me" D A One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror C G But he doesn't recognize his own face D A His health is fading and he doesn't know why C G 3 letters took him to his final resting place Y'all don't hear me? [Chorus] D A Don't go chasing waterfalls C Please stick to the rivers G And the lakes that you're used to D I know that you're gonna have it your way A Or nothing at all C G But I think you're moving too fast [Chorus] D A Don't go chasing waterfalls C Please stick to the rivers G And the lakes that you're used to D I know that you're gonna have it your way A Or nothing at all C G But I think you're moving too fast Come on, come on [Verse] D I seen a rainbow yesterday A But too many storms have come and gone C Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray Is it because my life is ten shades of gray? G I pray all ten fade away Seldom praise Him for the sunny days D And like His promise is true A Only my faith can undo The many chances I blew C To bring my life to anew Clear blue and unconditional skies G Have dried the tears from my eyes No more lonely cries D My only bleedin' hope Is for the folk who can't cope A With such an endurin' pain That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain C Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein? G What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain D You claim the insane and name this day in time A For fallin' prey to crime I say the system got you victim to your own mind C Dreams are hopeless aspirations G In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you [Chorus] D A Don't go chasing waterfalls C Please stick to the rivers G And the lakes that you're used to D I know that you're gonna have it your way A Or nothing at all C G But I think you're moving too fast [Chorus] D A Don't go chasing waterfalls C Please stick to the rivers G And the lakes that you're used to D I know that you're gonna have it your way A Or nothing at all C G But I think you're moving too fast
