Verse 1:
 Cadd9  G           D         Em
Fifth floor, she's up in her dorm
 Cadd9   G       D         Dsus4   D
Studying for her mid-term
 Cadd9  G  D            Em
She's had one of those weeks
          Cadd9     G          D         Dsus4   D
Where the world it seems is against her



Pre Chorus:
Cadd9     G             D              Dsus4   D
Right on cue a picture pops up, on her laptop
Cadd9               G             D      Dsus4   D
She can't pick her cell phone up fast enough

Sometimes you just need a little home
Cadd9              G               D    Dsus4    D
Some "hey mum and dad what's going on?
Cadd9             G       D                  Em  D
I'm just checkin' in, no there ain't nothing wrong"
Cadd9                D
Sometimes, you just need a little home.

           mmm....


Verse 2:
Cadd9  G          D          Em
He's tired, sits down in the sand
     Cadd9      G            D         Dsus4   D
Shoe box in his hand, half a world away
Cadd9   G              D             Em
And he smiles, when he sees who it's from 
   Cadd9         G       D            Dsus4    D
He lays down his gun, no he can't wait


Pre Chorus:
Cadd9          G           D                          Dsus4    D
With cards and letters and something sweet he takes a bite and reads
Cadd9         G                D         Dsus4       D
How everybody sends their love he tears up!


Chorus:
Cadd9              G             D      Dsus4     D
Sometimes you just need a little home
Cadd9             G               D      Dsus4    D
A little let you know you're not alone
   Cadd9         G         D                Em   D
To carry in your heart and keep your spirit strong
Cadd9              D             Cadd9
Sometimes you just need a little home 



Bridge:
     G                 D                      Em     D
(Sometimes) I like to drive back through that little town
Cadd9   G              D                    Em        D 
(Sometimes) And get my feet back on, get my feet back on the ground 


                          [little solo]
                    [or just Cadd9 - G - D - Em
                             Cadd9 - G - D - Dsus4 - D]


Last Chorus:
Cadd9              G            D      Dsus4    D
Sometimes you just need a little home
Cadd9                G                 D          Em       D
A little "hey you've been gone way too long, yeah way too long!"
        Cadd9               G          D                  Em    D 
No matter how grown up you get, or no matter how far you roam
Cadd9                D        [pause]          Cadd9  G  D  Dsus4  D
Sometimes, you just need _ _ _ _ _ _ _a little home 

Cadd9        G           D                       G
"Hey mum and dad, whats going on?"
