_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _
School bag in hand, she [Bb] leaves home in the early _ [G] morning
_ Blaming goodbye _ [F] with an absent-minded smile
[Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] I watch her [G] go with [Gb] a search of _ unhandled sadness
[B] And I have [Eb] to sit down for [Gb] a while _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _

_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Bb] I try to capture every [Ebm] _ minute
[Ab] The _ feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind?
Each [Bb] time I think I'm close [B] to knowing
_ She _ keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the [E] time
[Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] Sleep in her _ eyes, [F] her and me [Ebm] at the breakfast _ [B] table
_ Barely _ awake, I [F] let precious [Ebm] time [Bb] go _ _ by
_ [Gb] _ _ _ [G]
Then [Bm] when she's gone, there's that old melancholy _ _ feeling
[Eb] And with a sense of guilt, I can't get [Ebm] _
enough
_ _ [Bm] _ [B] Though I _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Gb] haven't _ [D] chose
_ Slipping [B] _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
through _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
my fingers all [Gb] the time
I try [Fm] to capture _ every [Eb] _ minute
The _ feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers [Gb] all the time
Do I really see what's in her [Ebm] mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing _ _
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the _ time
Sometimes I [B] wish that I could freeze the picture
_ [Bb] _ _ _ And [Eb] save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers
