Slipping Through My Fingers
ABBAРазное
A#m
[Verse 1]:Bb A#m F
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
A# A#m F Am
Waving goodbye with an absentminded smile
A# A#m F Am
I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness
A# C
And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]:F A# C F A
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
A# C
And without really entering her world
F A# C F
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
C
That funny little girl
[Chorus]:F A# F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Am Gm
I try to capture every minute
A# F
The feeling in it
C F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
A# F
Do I really see what's in her mind
Am Gm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
A# F
She keeps on growing
C F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]:Bb A#m F
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
A# A#m F Am
Barely awake I let precious time go by
A# A#m F Am
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
A# C F
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
[Pre-Chorus]: A# C F A
What happened to the wonderful adventures
A# C
The places I had planned for us to go
F A# C F
Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't
C F
And why, I just don't know
[Chorus]: A# F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Am Gm
I try to capture every minute
A# F
The feeling in it
C F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
A# F
Do I really see what's in her mind
Am Gm
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
A# F
She keeps on growing
C
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Post-Chorus]
F A# C F A
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
A# C
And save it from the funny tricks of time
F F/A A# C F
Slipping through my fingers...
[Solo]:Bb F Am Gm A# F C F
A# F Am Gm A#
F C F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Outro]:Bb A#m F Am
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
A# A#m F Am
Waving goodbye with an absentminded smile
