Slipping Through My Fingers

G               Gm
Schoolbag in hand
            D           F#m
She leaves home in the early morning
G       Gm
Waving goodbye
        D               F#m
With an absent-minded smile
G           Gm
I watch her go
        D               F#m
With a surge of that well-known 
sadness
G               A               D
And I have to sit down for a while


[Pre-Chorus]

    G                A/C#     
The feeling that I'm losing her 
     D       F#
forever
    G              A          
And without really entering her 
  D        D/F#
world
    G              A/C#           
I'm glad whenever I can share her 
D              Asus4         
laughter, that funny little 
Dsus4   D
girl


[Chorus]

                      G            
Slipping through my fingers all the
 D
 time
          F#m           Em
I try to capture every minute
     G       D
The feeling in it
                     Asus4  A     
Slipping through my fingers all 
  D
the time
             G                D
Do I really see what's in her mind
            F#m               
Each time I think I'm close to 
  Em
knowing
      G        D
She keeps on growing

[Verse 2]

G               Gm
Sleep in our eyes
        D       F#m
Her and me at the breakfast table
G       Gm
Barely awake
D                   F#m
I let precious time go by
G               Gm
Then when she's gone
              D        F#m
There's that odd melancholy feeling
G               A             D
And a sense of guilt I can't deny


[Pre-Chorus]

        G             A/C#   
What happened to the wonderful 
    D       F#
adventures
        G        A                 
The places I had planned for us to 
D  D/F#
go (slipping through my fingers all 
the time)
G                    A/C#
Well some of that we did
             D
But most we didn't
   Asus4             Dsus4   D
And why I just don't know


[Chorus]

                      G            
Slipping through my fingers all the
 D
 time
          F#m           Em
I try to capture every minute
     G       D
The feeling in it
                     Asus4  A     
Slipping through my fingers all 
  D
the time
             G                D
Do I really see what's in her mind
            F#m               
Each time I think I'm close to 
  Em
knowing
      G        D
She keeps on growing
                      Asus4  A    
Slipping through my fingers all 
  D
the time



[Verse]

G                      A         
Sometimes I wish that I could 
         D       F#
freeze the picture
G                     A          
And save it from the funny tricks
     D
 of time
  D/F#               G   A  D
Slipping through my fingers


[Solo]

G D F#m Em G D Asus4 A D

G D F#m Em G D                
              Slipping through
    Asus4           D
 my fingers all the time

G             Gm
Schoolbag in hand
            D          F#m
She leaves home in the early morning
G       Gm              D       
Waving goodbye with an 
     F#m
absent-minded smile
