[Intro]
G   D   Asus2   D   x2

[Verse]
    G              D
He didn't have to wake up
Asus2             D
He'd been up all night
        G             D
Lying there in bed listening
       Asus2          Bm      Asus2
To his newborn  baby cry
     G              D
He makes a pot of coffee
           Asus2           D
He splashes water on his face
     G                D
His wife gives him a kiss and says
        Asus2  D
It gonna be OK

[Chorus]
           G      Asus2     D
It won't be like this for long
      G                 Asus2
One day we'll look back laugh'n
        F#m                 Bm     Asus2
At the week we brought her home
       G             D
This phase is gonna fly by
   F#m  Bm    Asus2
So baby just hold on
G        Asus2             D
It won't be like this for long

[Verse]
             G          D
Four years later 'bout four thirty
Asus2                    D
She's crawling in their bed
              G               D
And when he drops her off at pre-school
  Asus2                Bm     Asus2
She's clinging to his leg
     G                 D
The teacher peels her off of him
   Asus2           Bm     Asus2
He says what can I do
     G                 D
She says now don't you worry
                Asus2          D
This will only last a week or two

[Chorus]
           G      Asus2    D
It won't be like this for long
         G              Asus2
One day soon you'll drop her off
               F#m               Bm      Asus2
And she won't even know you're gone
       G             D
This phase is gonna fly by
Asus2      F#m   Bm       Asus2
If you can just hold on
G        Asus2             D
It won't be like this for long

[Bridge]
   Em   F#m      G       D
Some day soon she'll be a teenager
        D
And at times he'll think she hates him
             G                D
Then he'll walk her down the aisle
              Asus4   A       F#
And raise her veil
           Bm
But right now she up and cry'n
        D
And the truth is that he don't mind
        G           D
As he kisses her good night
                  Asus4   A
And she says her prayers

[Verse]
    G                D
He lays down there beside her
         Asus2              D
'Til her eyes are finally closed
          G               D
And just watch'n her it breaks his heart
     Asus2         D
Cause he already knows

[Chorus]
            G    Asus2      D
It won't be like this for long
         G               Asus2
One day soon that little girl is gonna be
F#m                Bm       Asus2
All grown up and gone
            G             D
Yeah this phase is gonna fly by
  Asus2     F#m    Bm        Asus2
So he's try'n to hold on
  G            Asus2              Bm          Asus2
'Cause it won't be like this for looooooong
G       Asus2               D
It won't be like this for long
