Verse 1:
 
D                        A 
A lonely mother gazining out of the window 
        C                              G 
Staring at her 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  
Cuz he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble 
            D 
So he goes out and he makes his money 
         A 
The best way he knows how 
         C                     G  
Another body layin cold in the gutter 
  


Listen to me 
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 
            A 
Your way or nothing at all 
                    C                 G 
But I think you're moving too fast 



verse 2 (the same as the rest of the song) 
  
 Little precious has a natural obsession 
 For temptation but he just can't see 
 She gives him loving that his body 
 Can't handle but all he can say 
 Is "baby is good to me" 
 One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror 
 But he doesn't recognize his own face 
 His health is fading and he doesn't know why 
 3 letters took him to his final resting place... 
  
 Y'all don't you hear me 
 Don't go chasing waterfalls 
 Please stick to the rivers 
 And the lakes that you're used to 
 I know that you're gonna have it 
 Your way or nothing at all 
 But I think your moving too fast 
  
Come on 
 I seen a rainbow yesterday 
 But to many storms have come and gone 
 Leaving a trace 
 Of not one God giving ray 
 Is it because 
 My life is ten shades of grey 
 I pray all ten fade away 
 Seldom praise him for the seven days 
 And like his promise is true 
 Only my faith can undo 
 The many chances I blew 
 To bring my life to anew 
 Clear and blue and unconditional 
 Skies have dried the tears from my eyes 
 No more lonely cries 
  
 Don't go chasing waterfalls 
 Please stick to the rivers 
 And the lakes that you're used to 
 I know that you're gonna have it 
 Your way or nothing at all 
 But I think your moving too fast 
Don't go chasing waterfalls 
 Please stick to the rivers 
 And the lakes that you're used to 
 I know that you're gonna have it 
 Your way or nothing at all 
 But I think your moving too fast
