Cadd9   G   D   Dsus4   D 


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 




Cadd9               G             D     Dsus4    D 
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. 


Cadd9   G   D   Dsus4   D 
           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! 



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  



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?" 


 end: G
