[Intro]
F C G
F C G
[Verse 1]
F C G
Drove out to California
F C G
Played for a dollar a day
F C G Am
To sing my songs while a few sang along
F G
Was worth more than what I got paid
F C G
But I've got this crazy feeling
F C G
Everything's gonna work out right
F C G Am
The odds are stacked but I won't look back
F G
I'm not going down without a fight
[Chorus]
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
Just being myself
F C G Am
I'd rather make a living being myself
F G
Than a killing being someone else
F C G
Someone else
F C G
[Verse 2]
F C G
I could trade this guitar
F C G
For a tie wrapped around my neck
F C G Am
Grab a 401K, rent would never be late
F G
I could cash my dreams for some check No
[Chorus]
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
Just being myself
F C G Am
I'd rather make a living being myself
F G C
Than a killing being someone else
[Bridge]
Am G F
Sometimes it ain't clear where to go
Am G F
Without a ladder to climb or a path to follow
Am G D
But these dreams won't let me go
F C G x 4
[Chorus]
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G Am
'Cause you can't call it living if you're someone else
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
Just being myself
F C G Am
I'd rather make a living being myself
F G
Than a killing being someone else
[Outro]
F C G
Someone else
F C G
I'd rather make a living
F C G
