Lyrics
(Bb)School bag in (Bbm)hand,
she leaves (F)home in the (Am)ear ly morn (Bb)ing,
wav ing good (Bbm)bye with an (F)ab sent mind ed (Am)smile.
(Bb)I watch her (Bbm)go with a (F)surge of that (Am)well known sad ness,
(Bb)and I have to (Csus)sit down (C)for a (F)while.
The (Bb)feel ing that I'm (C)los ing her for (F)ev er
(A)and (Bb)with out real ly (C)en ter ing her (F)world.
I'm (Bb)glad when ev er (C)I can share her (F)laugh ter,
that (Csus)fun ny (C)lit tle girl.
(F)Slip ping through my (Bb)fin gers all the (F)time,
I try to (Am)cap ture ev 'ry min (Gm)ute,
the (Bb)feel ing (F)in it.
Slip ping through my (Csus)fin gers (C)all the (F)time,
do I real ly (Bb)see what's in her (F)mind?
Each time I (Am)think I'm close to know (Gm)ing
she (Bb)keeps on (F)grow ing.
Slip ping through my (Csus)fin gers (C)all the (F)time.
(Bb)Sleep in our (Bbm)eyes,
her and (F)me at the (Am)break fast ta ble,
(Bb)bare ly a (Bbm)wake, I let (F)pre cious time go (Am)by.
(Bb)Then when she's (Bbm)gone, there's that (F)old mel an (Am)chol y feel ing (Bb)and a sense of (Csus)guilt I (C)can't de (F)ny.
What (Bb)hap pened to the (C)won der ful ad (F)ven (Aaug)tures,
(A)the (Bb)plac es I had (C)planned for us to (F)go?
Well, (Bb)some of that we (C)did,
but most we (F)did n't and (Csus)why,
I (C)just don't know.
(F)Slip ping through my (Bb)fin gers all the (F)time,
I try to (Am)cap ture ev 'ry min (Gm)ute,
the (Bb)feel ing (F)in it.
Slip ping through my (Csus)fin gers (C)all the (F)time,
do I real ly (Bb)see what's in her (F)mind?
Each time I (Am)think I'm close to know (Gm)ing she (Bb)keeps on (F)grow ing.
Slip ping through my (Csus)fin gers (C)all the (F)time.
Some (Bb)times I wish that (C)I could freeze the (F)pic ture
(A)and (Bb)save it from the (C)fun ny tricks of (F)time.
Slip ping through my (Bb)fin gers.
(F)Slip ping through my (Csus)fin gers (C)all the (F)time.
(Bb)School bag in (Bbm)hand,
she leaves (F)home in the (Am)ear ly morn ing,
(Bb)wav ing good (Bbm)bye with an (F)ab sent mind ed (Am)smile.
