Waterfalls - TLC
Intro:
A E7 G D

[Verse 1]
A                       E7
 A lonely mother gazing out of her window
        G                            D
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
          A                             E7
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
               G                       D
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
 
A                              E7
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
                G                            D
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
               A                               E7
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
        G                       D
Another body laying cold in the gutter (listen to me)
 
|[Chorus]
|A                E7
|Don't go chasing waterfalls
|                    G                                D
|Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
|                   A                         E7
|I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
|                   G               D
|But I think you're moving too fast
 
 
[Verse 2]
A                     E7
Little precious has a natural obsession
        G                        D
For temptation but he just can't see
A                             E7
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
        G                        D
But all he can say is "baby it's good to me"
A                           E7
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
       G                         D
But he doesn't recognize his own face
A                           E7
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
          G                     D
3 letters took him to his final resting place (y'all don't hear me?)
 
|[Chorus]
|A                E7
|Don't go chasing waterfalls
|                    G                                D
|Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
|                   A                         E7
|I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
|                   G               D
|But I think you're moving too fast

|I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
|                   G               D
|But I think you're moving too fast
