[Verse 1]
F Fm
Schoolbag in hand
C Em
She leaves home in the early morning
F Fm
Waving goodbye
C Em
With an absent-minded smile
F Fm
I watch her go
C Em
With a surge of that well-known sadness
F G C
And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
F G/B C E
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
F G C C/E
And without really entering her world
F G/B C Gsus4 Csus4 C
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl
[Chorus]
F C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Em Dm
I try to capture every minute
F C
The feeling in it
Gsus4 G C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
F C
Do I really see what's in her mind
Em Dm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
F C
She keeps on growing
Gsus4 G C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]
F Fm
Sleep in our eyes
C Em
Her and me at the breakfast table
F Fm
Barely awake
C Em
I let precious time go by
F Fm
Then when she's gone
C Em
There's that odd melancholy feeling
F G C
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
[Pre-Chorus]
F G/B C E
What happened to the wonderful adventures
F G C C/E
The places I had planned for us to go (slipping through my fingers all the time)
F G/B
Well some of that we did
C
But most we didn't
Gsus4 Csus4 C
And why I just don't know
[Chorus]
F C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Em Dm
I try to capture every minute
F C
The feeling in it
Gsus4 G C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
F C
Do I really see what's in her mind
Em Dm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
F C
She keeps on growing
Gsus4 G C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse]
F G C E
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
F G C
And save it from the funny tricks of time
C/E F G C
Slipping through my fingers
[Solo]
F C Em Dm F C Gsus4 G C
F C Em Dm F C Gsus4 C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Outro]
F Fm
Schoolbag in hand
C Em
She leaves home in the early morning
F Fm C Em
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
