Chords for Slipping Through My Fingers - TikTok Version

_ _ _ _ School bag in hand, [G] she leaves home in the early [C] morning
Waving [Cm] goodbye with an absent [Bm]-minded smile
_ [C] I [Cm] watch her go with [G] a search of that well-known [C] sadness
And [D] I have to sit down [G] for a while
_ [C] The feeling [D] that I'm losing [G] her forever
[B] _ _ [C] And without [D] re-entering [G] the world
I'm [C] glad [Bm] we're never breaking, [G] share the last
[D] That funny [G] little girl
_ [C] Staring through my fingers [G] all the time
I'm [Bm] trying to capture [Am] every meaning
The [G] feeling in it
[D] Staring through my fingers [G] all the time
[C] My brain is seeing what's [G] in the mind
Each [Bm] time I think I'm [Am] close to knowing
She [G] keeps on growing
[D] Staring through my fingers [G] all the time
_ _ [C] Deep [Cm] in her eyes, [G] her and me
At first, [C] very bold, very awake
[G] I let precious time [Bm] go by
_ _ _ [C] There, where [Cm] she's gone
[G] There's that odd melody
[C] And a [D] sense of guilt I [G] can't deny
_ [C] What happened [D] _ [G] on the adventure
[B] _ [C] The places [D] I had planned for [G] us to go
You were so [C] well, so noble [D] and pretty
But [G] you're so indifferent, [D] _ [G] I just don't know
[C] Staring through my fingers [G] all the time
I'm [Bm] trying to capture [Am] every meaning
The [G] feeling in it
Staring [D] through my fingers [G] all the time
[C] My brain is seeing what's [G] in the mind
Each [Bm] time I think I'm [Am] close to knowing
She [G] keeps on growing
Staring [D] through my fingers [G] all the time
[C] Sometimes I wish [D] I could [G] freeze the picture
[B] _ [C] And save it [D] from the regrets [G] I have
[C] If we're not together
[G] We're _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _
[Bm] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _
[Bm] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _
[D] not together, [G] so we're trapped
_ _ _ [C] School [Cm] bag in hand
[G] She leaves home
[Bm] _ _ [C] _
[Cm] Waving goodbye
[G] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
