Tabbed by: Matt Mink
I imagine that many people can relate to this song on some level. It's very special to
me and my family. Like Steven, we lost one of our children, and since then several of our
family members have gone to be with God. But these lyrics remind us of the hope we have
in Christ - that one day we will join Him and our loved ones in Heaven again. Our time
here on Earth is short. We should use it the best we can. I tabbed this song by ear, so
there may be some mistakes in the chords, but it works if you play along with the song.
Tuning: Standard
VERSE 1:
[F]I hold your hand and watch as the sun slowly [C]fades
[F]Far in the distance the Father is calling your [C]name
And it's [Am]time for you to go [Bb]home
And every[Am]thing in me wants to hold [Bb]on
But I'm [C]letting you go with [G]this good[Am]bye kiss
[Bb]and this [C]promise
CHORUS:
I'll S[F]EE you in a little [Am]while
I'll S[F]EE you in a little [Bb]while
[Bb]It won't be too long now
We'll [F]SEE it on the other [Am]side
The wait was [F]only the blink of an [Bb]eye
So [Bb]I'm not gonna say good[C]bye
Bb C F (if not going to bridge)
'Cause I'll SEE you in a little while
VERSE 2:
[F]And just one more thing before I let you [C]go
[F]Please tell my little girl I love her
Though I'm sure she [C]already knows
And ask the [Am]Father to please tell the [Bb]Son
That we're r[Am]eady and waiting for Him to c[Bb]ome
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
[C]Maybe you'll teach me all the [Bb]songs they sing in heaven
[C]Maybe you'll show me how you can [Bb]fly
[C]And I'll hear you laugh again
[Bb]And we won't remember when
[G]We were not together and t[Bb]his time it's fore[C]ver
(CHORUS)
