Chords for Ethan Hodges - 'Slipping Through My Fingers' (Lyric Video)

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