[Verse 1]
A Am
Schoolbag in hand
E G#m
She leaves home in the early morning
A Am
Waving goodbye
E G#m
With an absent-minded smile
A Am
I watch her go
E G#m
With a surge of that well-known sadness
A B E
And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
A B/D# E G#
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
A B E E/G#
And without really entering her world
A B/D# E Bsus4 Esus4 E
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl
[Chorus]
A E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
G#m F#m
I try to capture every minute
A E
The feeling in it
Bsus4 B E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
A E
Do I really see what's in her mind
G#m F#m
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
A E
She keeps on growing
Bsus4 B E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]
A Am
Sleep in our eyes
E G#m
Her and me at the breakfast table
A Am
Barely awake
E G#m
I let precious time go by
A Am
Then when she's gone
E G#m
There's that odd melancholy feeling
A B E
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
[Pre-Chorus]
A B/D# E G#
What happened to the wonderful adventures
A B E E/G#
The places I had planned for us to go (slipping through my fingers all the time)
A B/D#
Well some of that we did
E
But most we didn't
Bsus4 Esus4 E
And why I just don't know
[Chorus]
A E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
G#m F#m
I try to capture every minute
A E
The feeling in it
Bsus4 B E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
A E
Do I really see what's in her mind
G#m F#m
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
A E
She keeps on growing
Bsus4 B E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse]
A B E G#
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
A B E
And save it from the funny tricks of time
E/G# A B E
Slipping through my fingers
[Solo]
A E G#m F#m A E Bsus4 B E
A E G#m F#m A E Bsus4 E
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Outro]
A Am
Schoolbag in hand
E G#m
She leaves home in the early morning
A Am E G#m
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
