Intro:   G   D   Asus2   D  x2
    G             D 
He didnt have to wake up
Asus2             D
He'd been up all nite
        G             D
Lying there in bed listening
       Asus2          Bm      Asus2
To his new born 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
          
          G      Asus2     D
It wont 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
Asus2  F#m  Bm    Asus2
So baby just hold on
G       Asus2             D
It wont be like this for long
             G          D
Four years later 'bout four thirty
Asus2                    D
She's crawling in there bed
              G               D
And when he drops her off at preschool
  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 dont you worry
                Asus2          D
This will only last a week or two
          G      Asus2    D
It wont be like this for long
         G              Asus2
One day soon you'll drop her off
              F#m 	      Bm      Asus2
And she wont even know your gone
       G             D
This phase is gonna fly by
Asus2      F#m   Bm       Asus2
If you can just hold on
G       Asus2             D    
It wont be like this for long
         Bm
Some day soon she'll be a teenager
        Asus2
And at times he'll think she hates him 
             G                D
Then he'll walk her down the isle
              Asus2       F#m
And raise her vale
           Bm
But right now she up and cry'n
        Asus2
And the truth is that he dont mind
        G           D
As he kisses her good night
                  Asus2
And she says her prayers
    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
           G    Asus2      D
It wont 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 wont be like this for looooooong
G      Asus2               D
