Verse 1
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 2
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 [x2]:
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

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 3 [Rap Part]
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 [x2]

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

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


And that's it! Have fun :)
