Capo di fret ke-3

[Verse 1]

G                  Gm
Schoolbag in hand
                     D               F#m
She leaves home in the early morning
G           Gm
Waving goodbye
              D                   F#m
With an absent-minded smile
G            Gm
I watch her go
                 D                    F#m
With a surge of that well-known sadness
G                              A               D
And I have to sit down for a while

[Pre-Chorus]

       G                        A/C#           D    F#
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
       G                       A                 D     D/F#
And without really entering her world
       G                     A/C#                 D                            Asus4       Dsus4 D
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl

[Chorus]

                                 G                    D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
                F#m             Em
I try to capture every minute
         G            D
The feeling in it
                                 Asus4 A               D
Slipping through my fingers all the time
                    G                        D
Do I really see what's in her mind
                  F#m                         Em
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
           G           D
She keeps on growing
                                   Asus4 A          D
Slipping through my fingers all the time

[Verse 2]

G               Gm
Sleep in our eyes
                D                 F#m
Her and me at the breakfast table
G               Gm
Barely awake
             D              F#m
I let precious time go by
G                Gm
Then when she's gone
                        D                   F#m
There's that odd melancholy feeling
G                 A                  D
And a sense of guilt I can't deny

[Pre-Chorus]

                G                     A/C#            D          F#
What happened to the wonderful adventures
                G             A                           D D/F#
The places I had planned for us to go (slipping through my fingers all the time)
G                                 A/C#
Well some of that we did
                           D
But most we didn't
     Asus4                    Dsus4 D
And why I just don't know
