G D F C

[Verse 1]
G                       D
My lonely mother gazing out of her window
        F                             C
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
          G                             D
If at any time I am in a jam, she'll be by my side
            F                     C
But I don't realize I hurt her so much
G                              D
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
              F                          C
Cause I can't seem to keep myself out of trouble
G                        D
I make my money the best way I know how
        F                         C
Another busker laying cold in the gutter

[Chorus]
G                D
Don't go chasing waterfalls
                    F                                C
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
                   G                         D
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                    F
But I think you're moving too fast
C
Moving too fast

[Verse 2]
G                     D                     F
Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation
                 C
But I just can't see
G                          D
You give me loving that my body can't handle
         F                        C
All that I can say is, "Baby it's good to me"
G                        D
Each day I go and take a glimpse in the mirror
      F                      C
But I never recognize my own face
G                         D
My health is fading and I can't understand
              F                   C
Three letters take me to my final resting place

[Chorus] 
G                D
Don't go chasing waterfalls
                    F                                C
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
                   G                         D
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                    F
But I think you're moving too fast
C
Moving too fast

[Chorus] 
G                D
Don't go chasing waterfalls
                    F                                C
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
                   G                         D
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                    F
But I think you're moving too fast
C
Moving too fast
