Waterfalls
[Intro]
E B D A
[Verse]
E B
B lonely mother gazing out of her window
D A
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
E B
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D A
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
E B
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
D A
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
E B
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
D A
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
[Chorus]
E B
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D
Please stick to the rivers
A
And the lakes that you're used to
E
I know that you're gonna have it your way
B
Or nothing at all
D A
But I think you're moving too fast
[Verse]
E B
Little precious has a natural obsession
D A
For temptation but he just can't see
E B
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
D A
But all he can say is "baby it's good to me"
E B
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
D A
But he doesn't recognize his own face
E B
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
D A
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me?
[Chorus]
E B
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D
Please stick to the rivers
A
And the lakes that you're used to
E
I know that you're gonna have it your way
B
Or nothing at all
D A
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
E B
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D
Please stick to the rivers
A
And the lakes that you're used to
E
I know that you're gonna have it your way
B
Or nothing at all
D A
But I think you're moving too fast
Come on, come on
[Verse]
E
I seen a rainbow yesterday
B
But too many storms have come and gone
D
Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
A
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
E
And like His promise is true
B
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
E
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
B
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
D
Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
E
You claim the insane and name this day in time
B
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
D
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
A
In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you
[Chorus]
E B
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D
Please stick to the rivers
A
And the lakes that you're used to
E
I know that you're gonna have it your way
B
Or nothing at all
D A
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
E B
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D
Please stick to the rivers
A
And the lakes that you're used to
E
I know that you're gonna have it your way
B
Or nothing at all
Inside Out
[Chorus]
B F#
I would swallow my pride
C#
I would choke on the rinds
B
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
B F# G#
I would swallow my doubt turn it inside out
(find nothing but faith in nothing)
F# C#
Want to put my tender heart in a blender
G#
Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion
F# C# G#
Rendezvous then I'm through with you
C# G# B A
I burn burn like a wicker cabinet chalk white and oh so frail
C# G# F#
I see our time had gotten stale
C# G#
The tick tock of the clock is painful
B A
All sane and logical
C# G# F#
I want to tear it off the wall
C# G#
I hear words and clips and phrases
B A
I think sick like ginger ale
C# G# A
My stomach turns and I exhale
[Chorus]
B F#
I would swallow my pride
C#
I would choke on the rinds
B
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
B F# G#
I would swallow my doubt turn it inside out
(find nothing but faith in nothing)
F# C#
Want to put my tender heart in a blender
G#
Watch it spin around to a beautiful oblivion
F# C# G#
Rendezvous then I'm through with you
C# G#
So cal is where my mind states
B A
but it's not my state of mind
C# G# F#
I'm not as ugly sad as you
C# G#
Or am I origami
B A
Folded up and just pretend
C# G# A
demented as the motives in your head
-Chorus-
C#/G# F# B F# Staccato
C#/G# F# B F#
I alone am the one you don't know you need take heed feed your ego
C#/G# F# B F#
Make me blind when your eyes close, sink when you get close, tie me to the
Bed post
C#/G# F# B F#
I alone am the one you don't know you need you don't know you need me.
C#/G# F# B (pause) F#
make me Blind when your eyes close, tie me to the bed post
[Chorus]
C# F#
I would swallow my pride
B
I would choke on the rinds
F# C#
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
C# F# B
I would swallow my doubt turn it inside out
F#
Find nothing but faith in nothing

[Verse]
F#m Bm
At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
E Amaj7
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side.
Dmaj7 G#m7b5
But then I spent so many nights, thinking how you did me wrong,
C#sus4 C#
And I grew strong; and I learned how to get along.
F#m Bm
But now you're back, from outer space,
E Amaj7
I just walked in, to find you here, with that sad look upon your face.
Dmaj7
I should have changed that stupid lock,
G#m7b5
I should have made you leave your key,
C#sus4 C#
If I had known for just one second, you'd be back to bother me.

Go on now, go; walk out the door;
E Amaj7
Just turn a-round now, 'cos you're not welcome any more.

C#sus4 C#
Did you think I'd crumble; did you think I'd lay down and die?
F#m Bm
Oh no, not I; I will sur-vive,
E Amaj7
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive.
Dmaj7 G#m7b5
I've got all my life to live, and I've got all my love to give,

Dmaj7 G#m7b5
And I spent oh, so many nights, just feeling sorry for myself,
C#sus4 C#7
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
F#m Bm
And you see me; somebody new,
E Amaj7
I'm not that chained up little person, still in love with you.
Dmaj7 G#m7b5

Well, now I'm saving all my loving, for some-one who's loving me.

And I do not think an one know what they are,
E
doing here-er
F#m
And your friends have left, you've been dismissed,
A
I never thought it would come to this, and I,
E
I want you to know-o
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m Bsus2
Everyone's got to face down the demons, maybe today,
A
we can put the past away.
[Chorus]
Dmaj7 A E
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
Dmaj7 A E
you could cut ties with all the lies that you've been livin, a-and
Dmaj7 A E
if you do not want to see me again,
[Outro]
E Dmaj7 A E
I would under-sta---i-a---i-and
E Dmaj7 A E
I would under-sta---i-a---i-and
E Dmaj7 A E
I would under-sta---i-a---i-a-and
