Verse 1
Just coz I sometimes wnat the I'll put the lyrics in too.
This map hung up on the truck stop hallway door
Is looking worn and I can hardly read it anymore

I feel like I'm a speck thrown on the map
And I can't help my urge to laugh
I never used to feel like that

Chorus 1
Well I'm half awake half a world away
All my past mistakes and every mispent day
I wouldn't have it any other way

Verse 2
I'll try through my haze and half shut eyes
to count up all the reasons why
I should be back at home tonight

Chorus 2
Half awake half a world away
All my past mistakes and every mispent day
Proves that I'll never change
I'll always stay the same
I wouldn't have it any other way

Other bit
Well I'm half awake, a world away
All my past mistakes and those wasted days
I wouldn't have it any other way
I wouldn't have it any other way

I havent checked this coz I'm lazy so some bits might be wrong but hey, life goes on.
I hope you enjoy this tab and you get admiring looks from members of the opposite sex.
