[INTRO]
[Gm] [Eb] [F] [x3]
[VERSE 1]
[Bb] Little Gio is a [Dm7]friend of mine
We get some money and we [Abadd9]buy a cheap ([Abadd9]/Bb)wine
[Ebmaj7] Sit on the corner and[D7sus] have a [D7]hol - i - [Gm]day [Abadd9]
[Ebmaj7] Hide the bottle when the [Dm7]cop goes by
[D7]Talk about women and [Gm7]lie, [F]lie, [C7]lie
Oh,[Ebmaj7] my other world is just a [Ebmaj7]half a mile away
[BRIDGE 1]
[Bb] [Gm] [Eb] - [C7/E] [F] [x2]
Oo-oo Oo-oo Oo - oo - oo - oo
[VERSE 2]
[Bb] Wait for mamma to [Dm7]turn out the light
Crawl on the the roof and then [Abadd9]hit the ni([Abadd9]/Bb)ght
[Ebmaj7] I should be sleeping but ton[D7sus]ight I j[D7]ust can't [Gm]stay [Abadd9]
[Ebmaj7] I've given everybody [Dm7]so much time
[D7]Now I need a moment that's [Gm7]m - -[F] i[C7]ne
Oh,[Ebmaj7] my other world is just a [Ebmaj7]half a mile away

[VERSE 3]
[Bb] Angelina save a [Dm7]place for me
I've been [Gm]livin' someone else's life and [Abadd9]now I've got to ([Abadd9]/Bb)be free
[Ebmaj7] Turn your transistor on and [D7sus]let the [D7]music [Gm]play [Abadd9]
I [Ebmaj7]try to keep the family [Dm7]satisfied
But there's [D7]gotta be more to life than just [Gm7]try, try, [C7]try
Oh,[Ebmaj7] my other world is just a [Ebmaj7]half a mile away
