You said you'd always be there for me, you said you'd always be in my life.
But now, oh now your chasing dragons instead.
You told me I was chasing the moon, 
I should have listened up but I'm a fool,
a fool tangled up in your web.
All for the taste of wine stained lips, 200 miles just to get my fix,
it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be
Your bringing me down and I need to get some sleep.

9 miles to happiness,
I know because I've been there before.
9 miles to happiness,
I've got something to live for.

Please tell me old friend, did you find what your looking for?
I'd like to tell you that without you I'm so happy I could die.
All for the taste of wine stained lips, 200 miles just to get my fix, 
it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be
Your bringing me down and I need to get some sleep.

9 miles to happiness,
I know because I've been there before.
9 miles to happiness,
I've got something to live for.
9 miles to happiness,
I know because I've been there before.
9 miles to happiness,
I've got something to live for.

It seems that I can't count all the roads that I've been down. 
I seems that I can't count all the towns 
that I've drown in and burned to the ground.
Oh what a find when I found this place. 
All full of style and second hand love so incredibly cheap. 
I stayed for nine months and I stayed for nine weeks.

9 miles to happiness,
I know because I've been there before.
9 miles to happiness,
I've got something to live for.
9 miles to happiness,
I know because I've been there before.
9 miles to happiness,
I've got something to live for.
