It Wont Be Like This For Long Chords
My first tab...I'm sure it is not exactly like the original song, but I mainly
made this for ease if you are a new player just starting.
If you don't have a Capo you can play it without one, it just sounds a little different.
Capo on 2nd fret sounds best to me.
Verse 1
C G D E
He didn't have to stay up. He'd been up all night.
C G D E
Lyin' there in bed and listenin' to his new born baby cry.
C G D E
He makes a pot of coffee and splashes water on his face.
C G D G
His wife gives him a kiss and says, "it's gonna be ok."
Chorus
C D G
It won't be like this for long.
C D G D
Someday we'll look back laughin' at the week we brought her home.
C D G E
This phase is gonna fly by, so baby just hold on.
C D G
'Cause it won't be like this for long.
Verse 2
C G D E
Four years later 'bout four thirty she's crawlin' in their bed.
C G D E
And when he drops her off at preschool she's clingin' to his leg.
C G D E
The teacher peels her off of him. He says, "What can I do?"
C G D G
She says, "Now don't ya worry. This will only last a week or two."

Chorus
C D G
It won't be like this for long.
C D G D
One day soon you'll drop her off and she won't even know you're gone.
C D G E
This phase is gonna fly by, if you can just hold on.
C D G
It won't be like this for long.
Bridge
C D G D
Someday soon she'll be a teenager and at times he'll think she hates him.
C G D
Then he'll walk her down the aisle and raise her veil.
C D G D
But right now she's up and cryin' and the truth is that he don't mind.
C G D
As he kisses her goodnight and she says her prayers.
Verse 3
C G D E
He lays down there beside her 'til her eyes are finally closed.
C G D E
And just watchin' her it breaks his heart 'cause he already knows.
Chorus
C D G
It won't be like this for long.
C D G D
One day soon that little girl is gonna be all grown up and gone.
C D G E
Yeah, this phase is gonna fly by, so he's tryin' to hold on.
C D E
'Cause it won't be like this for long.
C D G
It won't be like this for long.
That is the easiest and more accurate way to play the song in my opinion. Let me
know what you think.
