 B           D#m
Pick up the phone
           E            D#m
Make your bed, eat some toast
      E                  G#m
If reminding's what you needed
      D#                  E
Then here's your post-it note

Sing a new song
That's been there all along
Throw it out into the distance
There's no way to sing it wrong

Chorus:
 B
Buddy
          D#m        E
You just need to go home
             B
And I think maybe
         D#m        E
You just miss your mum
 B D#m E Em
(Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm
 B D#m E Em
Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm)

Keep wakin' up
With this weight on my chest
It's just called bein' a person
I never planned for this
(Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm
Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm)

The sun feels nice
Through the window with a view
It's fine bein' a person
'Cause I got to meet you, ooh
(Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm
Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm)

Chorus:
Buddy
You just need to find home
And I think maybe
You just miss your mum

I miss my mum
I miss my mum
I miss my mum
I miss my mum
