Waterfalls
[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
