Steven Curtis Chapman - See You In A Little While

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 C
i hold your hand and watch as the sun slowly fades
F C
far in the distance the father is calling your name
Am A#
and it’s time for you to go home
Am A#
and everything in me wants to hold on
C G Am
but i’m letting you go with this goodbye kiss
A# C
and this promise

chorus :
F Am
i’ll see you in a little while
F A#
i’ll see you in a little while
A#
it won’t be too long now
F Am
we’ll see it on the other side
F A#
the wait was only the blink of an eye
A# C
so i’m not gonna say goodbye
A# C F ( if not going to bridge )
’cause i’ll see you in a little while

verse 2 :
F C
and just one more thing before i let you go
F
please tell my little girl i love her
C
though i’m sure she already knows
Am A#
and ask the father to please tell the son
Am A#
that we’re ready and waiting for him to come

[ chorus ]

bridge :
C A#
maybe you’ll teach me all the songs they sing in heaven
C A#
maybe you’ll show me how you can fly
C
and i’ll hear you laugh again
A#
and we won’t remember when
G A# C
we were not together and this time it’s forever

[ chorus ]
