Days are long, go on and on
           F#m11/C#
Before you know it, 

man they're up and gone

               Em/B
So tough it on out,

   C
It used to be us in 

our own little world

F#m11/C#

four little girls

Em/B
  So much for just 

dancin' in the kitchen

F#m11/C#
One needs a nap and the 

other needs attention

      C
I say, "Come here. Baby, 

why you cryin?

F#m11/C#
  Daddy's got ya, 

everything's fine, yeah"

Em/B
  I pick her up. I put 

her on my shoulder

       F#m11/C#
Better hold her while 

she lets me hold her
 
 
[Chorus]

        C
Days are long, go on and on
           F#m11/C#
Before you know it, man 

they're up and gone

               Em/B
So tough it on out, 

let it all sink in

                         
'Cause these times ain't 
F#m11/C#
never comin' back again

                      C
So, you might as well laugh 

and watch 'em grow...

Up. Take a breath when you wanna...
                 Em/B                    
Cuss. Before you know it

'em the keys to a Honda Accord

                          
The days are long, and the
