[Intro]
Ebmaj7  Bb  Dbmaj7  Ab  x2
 
[Verse]
Ebmaj7              Bb
Lonely mother gazes out of a window
        Dbmaj7                       Ab
Looking at a son that she just can't touch
          Ebmaj7                       Bb
If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side
               Dbmaj7                  Ab
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
Ebmaj7                   Bb
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
                Dbmaj7                      Ab
'Cause he can't seem to keep himself out of trouble
               Ebmaj7                          Bb
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
        Dbmaj7                 Ab
Another body lying cold in the gutter
 
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7           Bb
Don't go chasing waterfalls
                    Dbmaj7                        Ab
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes like you used to
                   Ebmaj7                    Bb
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                   Dbmaj7           Ab
But I think you're moving too fast
 
 
[Verse]
Ebmaj7                Bb
Little precious has a natural obsession
        Dbmaj7                   Ab
For temptation but he just can't see
Ebmaj7                        Bb
She gives him lovin' that his body can't handle
         Dbmaj7                Ab
All that he can say is baby is good to me
Ebmaj7                       Bb
One day he stops and takes a glimpse in the mirror
       Dbmaj7                    Ab
But he doesn't recognize his own face
Ebmaj7                       Bb
His health is failing and he doesn't know why
              Dbmaj7                Ab
Three letters took him to his final resting place
 
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7           Bb
Don't go chasing waterfalls
                    Dbmaj7                        Ab
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes like you used to
                   Ebmaj7                    Bb
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                   Dbmaj7           Ab
But I think you're moving too fast

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes like you used to
                   Ebmaj7                    Bb
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
                   Dbmaj7           Ab

                    Dbmaj7                        Ab

                   Dbmaj7           Ab
But I think you're moving too fast
