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