Capo 1

[D]A lonely mother gazing [A]out of the window

Staring [D7]at a son that she just can't [G]touch

If at any [D]time he's in a jam, she'll be [A]by his side

But he doesn't [D7]realize he hurts her so [G]much

[D]But all the praying just ain't [A]helping at all

'Cause he can't [D7]seem to keep himself out of [G]trouble

So he goes out [D]and he makes his money the best [A]way he knows how

Another [D7]body laying cold in the [G]gutter, listen to me

[D]Don't go chasing [A]waterfalls

Please stick to the [D7]rivers and the lakes that you're [G]used to

I know that you're [D]gonna have it your way or [A]nothing at all

But I think you're [D7]moving too fast [G]

[D]Little precious has a [A]natural obsession

For temp [D7]tation, but he just can't [G]see

[D]She gives him loving that his [A]body can't handle

But all [D7]he can say is, "Baby, it's [G]good to me"

One [D]day, he goes and takes a [A]glimpse in the mirror

But he [D7]doesn't recognize his own [G]face

[D]His health is fading, and he [A]doesn't know why

Three letters [D7]took him to his final [G]resting place, y'all don't hear me

[D]Don't go chasing [A]waterfalls

Please stick to the [D7]rivers and the lakes that you're [G]used to

I know that you're [D]gonna have it your way or [A]nothing at all

But I think you're [D7]moving too fast [G]

[D]Don't go chasing [A]waterfalls

Please stick to the [D7]rivers and the lakes that you're [G]used to

I know that you're [D]gonna have it your way or [A]nothing at all

But I think you're [D7]moving too fast [G]

Come on! [D]I seen a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms

[A]Have come and gone, leaving a trace of not one God-given ray

[D7]Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?

I pray all [G]ten fade away, seldom praise Him for the sunny days

[D]And like His promise is true, only my faith can undo

[A]The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew

[D7]Clear blue and unconditional skies

Have dried the [G]tears from my eyes, no more lonely cries

My [D]only bleeding hope is for the folk who can't cope

With such an [A]endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

[D7]Who's to blame for tooting 'caine into your own vein?

[G]What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else's brain

You [D]claim the insane, and name this day in time For falling prey to crime

I [A]say the system got you victim to your own mind

[D7]Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true

[G]Believe in yourself, the rest is up to me and you

[D]Don't go chasing [A]waterfalls

Please stick to the [D7]rivers and the lakes that you're [G]used to

I know that you're [D]gonna have it your way or [A]nothing at all

But I think you're [D7]moving too fast [G]

[D]Don't go chasing [A]waterfalls

Please stick to the [D7]rivers and the lakes that you're [G]used to

I know that you're [D]gonna have it your way or [A]nothing at all

But I think you're [D7]moving too fast [G]
