guitar chords lyrics
A lonely mother gazining out of the window
Staring at her son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
'Cuz he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money
The best way he knows how
Another body layin' cold in the gutter
Listen to 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 you're moving too fast
Little precious has a natural obsession
For temptation but he just can't see
But I think you're moving too fast
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 you're moving too fast, but I think you're 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 gray
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, my only bleeding hope
Is for the folk who can't cope with such an endurin' pain
That it keeps them in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame for tootin' caine into your own vein?
What a shame you shoot and aim for some one else's blame
You claim the insane for this day and time for falling
Prey to crime I say the system's got you victim to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true
Believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you
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 you're moving too fast
