[E]
[A] Bag [Am] in hand, [E] she leaves home
[Ab] [A] [Am] Waving goodbye
[E] with an [Am] absent [Abm]-minded smile
I [Am] watch her go
[Em] With a surge of that well [Ab]-known [A] sadness
And [B] I have to sit down [A] for a while
[E]
[A] The feeling that [B] I'm losing her [Em] forever
[Ab] And
[A] without really [B] entering
[E]
[Ab] I'm [A] glad whenever [B] I can share [E] her laughter
That funny little girl
Sipping [A] through my fingers all the [E] time
I [B] try [Abm] to capture [Gbm] every minute
[A] The [E] feeling in it
Sipping through my fingers all the time
Do I [A] really see what's [Em] in her mind?
Each [Abm] time I think I'm close [Gbm] to knowing
[A] She keeps [E] on growing
Sipping through my fingers all the time
[A] See [Am] then arise
[Gbm] Her [E] and me at the [Abm] breakfast [A] table
[Am] Barely awake, I [E] let precious [Gbm] time [Abm] go by [A] She's [Am] gone
[E] There's that odd melancholy [A] feeling
And a sense [B] of guilt I [E] can't deny
[A] What happened to [B] those wonderful [E] adventures?
[Ab] [A] The places I [B] had planned for us [E] to go
[Ab]
[A] Well, some of [B] that we did
But most [E] we didn't
And why I [Bm] just don't [E] know
[A] Sipping through my fingers [E] all the time
I [Abm] try to [E] capture [Gbm] every minute
[A] The [E]
feeling in it
Sipping through my fingers all the time
Do I [A] really see what's [E] in her mind?
Each [Abm] time I think I'm close [Gbm] to knowing
[A] She [E] keeps on growing
Sipping through my fingers all the time
[A] Sometimes I wish [B] that I could freeze [Em] The picture
[Ab]
And [A] save it [B] from the funny tricks of [E] time
Sipping [A] through my
[B] fingers
