[Verse 1]
A cold [G]wind against my
shoulder [D]woke me up in the middle of [G]the night
An [Em]Autumn leaf was scraping
against my window
Like it was trying hard to get inside
[G]And then a g[C]host that I had met
before [D]kept me up 'til dawn
[G]And everything I thought was
[C]right was suddenly all wrong
He said, "Your [D]score is
looking pretty bad"
And then he asked me what
it was that I had to show
[G]

[Verse 2]
So I went running down a list of things
[D]Some were real,
but on some of them I [G]lied
Cause I [Em]felt I had to justify each breath
that I'd been breathing in [G]this life
Then I [C]realized I was playing
into [D]someone else's rules,
[G]Trying to keep my score up in
a [C]game I did not choose
Then I [D]looked that ghost
straight in the eye
And said "You'd better not be
coming back by again"
[G]

[Verse 3]
And it's true that I don't
[C]work near as hard
As [D]you tell me that I'm supposed to
[G]I don't run as fast as [D]I c[G]oul[C]d
But I live just the way I [D]want to

[Interlude 1]
And that's the way I should

[Verse 4]
[G]October's leaves were dancing 'round
Like [D]angels dressed in
robes of Red [G]and Gold
But Novem[Em]ber's come and gone now
And they're lying in the gutter
out along the [G]road
They're gonna [C]make their way out to the
ditch or [D]someday to the sea,
They'll [G]get to where they're going
without the [C]help of you or me
And if each [D]life is just a grain of sand
I'm telling you man,
this grain of sand is mine
[G]

[Verse 5]
And it's true that I don't
[C]work near as hard
As you [D]tell me that I'm supposed to
[G]I don't run as fast as I cou[C]ld
But I live just the way I [D]want to
And that's the way I [G]should
But [C]I live just the way I[Em] want[D] to

[Outro 1]
