Sit on the corner and have a holiday

Talk about women and lie, lie, lie
   D#maj7                      D#maj7/F
Oh,   my other world is just a half a mile away

Wait for mama to turn out the light
Crawl on the the roof and then hit the night
I should be sleeping, but tonight I just can't stay
I've given everybody so much time
Now I need a moment that's mine
Oh, my other world is just a half a mile away

Chorus:
Gm D#                    F
Oo,  it's just a half a mile away - x3

Angelina save a place for me
I've been living someone else's life,
and now I've got to be free
Turn your transistor on and let the music play
I try to keep the family satisfied
But there's gotta be more to life
than just try, try, try
Oh, my other world is only half a mile away

Chorus:
It's just a half a mile away
It's just a half a mile away
It's just a half a mile away

I've given everybody so much time
Now I need a moment that's mine
Oh, my other world is just a half a mile away

It's just a, it's just a half a mile away
Don't you know it's just a half a mile?
It's just a, it's just a half a mile away
