 -  -  -  -  (quickly change with 's)
 Fifth  floor,  she's up  in her dorm
 Studying for  her mid-term
 She's  had  one  of those weeks
 Where the world  it seems  is against  her
 Pre Chorus:
Right  on cue  a picture pops  up, on her laptop
She  can't pick her cell  phone up fast  enough
Sometimes  you just need  a little home
Some  "hey mum and dad  what's going on?
I'm  just checkin' in,  no there  ain't nothing wrong"
Sometimes,  you just need  a little home.
 mmm....
He's  tired,  sits down  in the sand
 Shoe box  in his hand,  half a world  away
And  he smiles,  when he sees  who it's from
 He lays  down his gun,  no he  can't wait
 Pre Chorus:
With  cards and letters  and something  sweet he takes a bite  and reads
How  everybody sends  their love he  tears up!
Sometimes  you just need  a little home
A  little let you know  you're not alone
 To carry  in your heart  and keep  your spirit strong
Sometimes  you just need  a little home
 (Sometimes)  I like to drive  back through that little town
(Sometimes)  And get my feet  back on, get my feet  back on  the ground
   -  -  -
   -  -  -  - ]
 Last Chorus:
Sometimes  you just need  a little  home
A  little "hey you've been  gone way too long,  yeah way  too long!"
 No matter  how grown up you get,  or no matter  how far you roam
 Sometimes, you just need _ _ _ _ _ _ _a little home
"Hey  mum and dad,  whats going  on?"
  end on G (it sounds lovely with a pause after the D!!)
