Slipping Through My Fingers

Chords
pin

G		Gm
Schoolbag in hand
	    D		F#m
She leaves home in the early morning
G	Gm
Waving goodbye
	D		A
With an absent-minded smile
G	    Ab
I watch her go
	D		F#m
With a surge of that well-known sadness
G		A		Dsus4	 D
And I have to sit down for a while  
    G			A		D	F#
The feeling that I'm loosing her forever 
G			A	   D
And without really entering her world
G		   A			D	    A		Dsus4	D
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl 



G			A		D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
          F#m	Em
I try to capture every minute
	    D
The feeling in it
			A		Dsus4	D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
		G		D
Do I really see what's in her mind
		F#m		Em
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
		D
She keeps on growing
			A		Dsus4	D
Slipping through my fingers all the time


G		Gm
Sleep in our eyes
	D	F#m
Her and me at the breakfast table
G	Gm
Barely awake
D			A
I let precious time go by
G		Gm
Then when she's gone
		D	F#m
There's that odd melancholy feeling
G		A		Dsus4	D
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
	G		A	D
What happened to the wonderful adventures
	G	A		    D   D7
The places I had planned for us to go 
G			A
Well some of that we did
		D
But most we didn't
A			Dsus4	D
And why I just don't know


G			A		D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
          F#m	Em
I try to capture every minute
	    D
The feeling in it
			A		Dsus4	D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
		G		D
Do I really see what's in her mind
		F#m		Em
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
		D
She keeps on growing
			A		Dsus4	D
Slipping through my fingers all the time


G			A			D	F#m
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
G 			A		D
And save it from the funny tricks of time
G			A
Slipping through my fingers 

G		Gm
Schoolbag in hand
D			F#m
She leaves home in the early morning
G	Gm		D		F#m
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
