Verse 1:
 C9  G           D         Em
Fifth floor, she's up in her dorm
 C9   G       D         D4   D
Studying for her mid-term
 C9  G  D            Em
She's had one of those weeks
          C9     G          D         D4   D
Where the world it seems is against her



Pre Chorus:
C9     G             D              D4   D
Right on cue a picture pops up, on her laptop
C9               G             D      D4   D
She can't pick her cell phone up fast enough



Chorus:
C9               G             D     D4    D
Sometimes you just need a little home
C9              G               D    D4    D
Some "hey mum and dad what's going on?
C9             G       D                  Em  D
I'm just checkin' in, no there ain't nothing wrong"
C9                D
Sometimes, you just need a little home.


C9 - G - D - D4 - D
           mmm....


Verse 2:
C9  G          D          Em
He's tired, sits down in the sand
     C9      G            D         D4   D
Shoe box in his hand, half a world away
C9   G              D             Em
And he smiles, when he sees who it's from 
   C9         G       D            D4    D
He lays down his gun, no he can't wait


Pre Chorus:
C9          G           D                          D4    D
With cards and letters and something sweet he takes a bite and reads
C9         G                D         D4       D
How everybody sends their love he tears up!


Chorus:
C9              G             D      D4     D
Sometimes you just need a little home
C9             G               D      D4    D
A little let you know you're not alone
   C9         G         D                Em   D
To carry in your heart and keep your spirit strong
C9              D             C9
Sometimes you just need a little home 



Bridge:
     G                 D                      Em     D
(Sometimes) I like to drive back through that little town
C9   G              D                    Em        D 
(Sometimes) And get my feet back on, get my feet back on the ground 


                          [little solo]
                    [or just C9 - G - D - Em
                             C9 - G - D - D4 - D ]


Last Chorus:
C9              G            D      D4    D
Sometimes you just need a little home
C9                G                 D          Em       D
A little "hey you've been gone way too long, yeah way too long!"
        C9               G          D                  Em    D 
No matter how grown up you get, or no matter how far you roam
C9                D        [pause]          C9  G  D  D4  D
Sometimes, you just need _ _ _ _ _ _ _a little home 

C9        G           D                       G
"Hey mum and dad, whats going on?"


               end on G (it sounds lovely with a pause after the D!!)
