Chords
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
