[Verse 1]
D Dm
Schoolbag in hand
A C#m
She leaves home in the early morning
D Dm
Waving goodbye
A C#m
With an absent-minded smile
D Dm
I watch her go
A C#m
With a surge of that well-known sadness
D E A
And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
D E/G# A C#
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
D E A A/C#
And without really entering her world
D E/G# A Esus4 Asus4 A
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl
[Chorus]
D A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
C#m Bm
I try to capture every minute
D A
The feeling in it
Esus4 E A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
D A
Do I really see what's in her mind
C#m Bm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
D A
She keeps on growing
Esus4 E A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]
D Dm
Sleep in our eyes
A C#m
Her and me at the breakfast table
D Dm
Barely awake
A C#m
I let precious time go by
D Dm
Then when she's gone
A C#m
There's that odd melancholy feeling
D E A
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
[Pre-Chorus]
D E/G# A C#
What happened to the wonderful adventures
D E A A/C#
The places I had planned for us to go (slipping through my fingers all the time)
D E/G#
Well some of that we did
A
But most we didn't
Esus4 Asus4 A
And why I just don't know
[Chorus]
D A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
C#m Bm
I try to capture every minute
D A
The feeling in it
Esus4 E A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
D A
Do I really see what's in her mind
C#m Bm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
D A
She keeps on growing
Esus4 E A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse]
D E A C#
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
D E A
And save it from the funny tricks of time
A/C# D E A
Slipping through my fingers
[Solo]
D A C#m Bm D A Esus4 E A
D A C#m Bm D A Esus4 A
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Outro]
D Dm
Schoolbag in hand
A C#m
She leaves home in the early morning
D Dm A C#m
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
