[Verse 1]
Em G D Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in Bm7 the early morning Em G D Bm7 Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile Em G D I watch her go with a surge of that Bm7 well-known sadness E A7 D And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A7 The feeling that I'm losing her D D7 forever Em A7 D D7 And without really entering her world Em A7 I'm glad whenever I can share D her laughter A D That funny little girl
[Chorus]
Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time A E I try to capture every minute E7 D The feeling in it Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time Em7 D Do I really see what's in her mind? A E Each time I think I'm close to knowing E7 D She keeps on growing Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]
Em G D Bm7 Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table Em G D Bm7 Barely awake, I let precious time go by Em G D Bm7 Then when she’s gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling E A7 D And a sense of guilt I can’t deny
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em A7 D D7 What happened to those wonderful adventures Em A7 D D7 The places I had planned for us to go Em A7 D Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't A D And why, I just don't know
[Chorus]
Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time A E I try to capture every minute E7 D The feeling in it Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time Em7 D Do I really see what's in her mind? A E Each time I think I'm close to knowing E7 D She keeps on growing Em7 D Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Bridge]
Em A7 D D7 Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture Em A7 D And save it from the funny tricks of time A7 Slipping through my fingers
Em7 D A E E7 D Em7 D Em7 D A E E7 D Em7 D
