Tlc - Waterfalls

^DA lonely mother gazing ^Aout of her window Staring ^Cat a son that she just can't ^Gtouch If at any ^Dtime he's in a jam, she'll be ^Aby his side But he doesn't ^Crealize he hurts her so ^Gmuch

^DBut all the praying just ain't ^Ahelping at all 'cause he can't ^Cseem to keep his self out of ^Gtrouble So he goes out ^Dand he makes his money the best ^Away he knows how Another ^Cbody laying cold in the ^Ggutter

^DDon't go chasing ^Awaterfalls Please stick to the ^Crivers And the lakes that you're ^Gused to I know that you're ^Dgonna have it your way Or ^Anothing at all But I think you're ^Cmoving too fast ^G

^DLittle precious has a ^Anatural obsession For temp^Ctation but he just can't ^Gsee ^DShe gives him loving that his ^Abody can't handle But all ^Che can say is "baby it's ^Ggood to me"

^DOne day he goes and takes a ^Aglimpse in the mirror But he ^Cdoesn't recognize his own ^Gface ^DHis health is fading and he ^Adoesn't know why 3 letters ^Ctook him to his final ^Gresting place

^DDon't go chasing ^Awaterfalls Please stick to the ^Crivers And the lakes that you're ^Gused to I know that you're ^Dgonna have it your way Or ^Anothing at all But I think you're ^Cmoving too fast ^G

^DI seen a rainbow yesterday But too many ^Astorms have come and gone Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ^Cray Is it because my life is ten shades of gray? I pray all ^Gten fade away Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

^DAnd like His promise is true Only my faith can undo ^A The many chances I blew To bring my life to anew ^C Clear blue and unconditional skies Have dried the ^Gtears from my eyes No more lonely cries

^DMy only bleedin' hope Is for the folk who can't cope With such an ^Aendurin' pain That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain ^CWho's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein? ^GWhat a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain ^DYou claim the insane and name this day in time For fallin' prey to crime ^A I say the system got you victim to your own mind ^CDreams are hopeless aspirations In hopes of comin' ^Gtrue believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you

^DDon't go chasing ^Awaterfalls Please stick to the ^Crivers And the lakes that you're ^Gused to I know that you're ^Dgonna have it your way Or ^Anothing at all But I think you're ^Cmoving too fast ^G
