Verse: G Gm Schoolbag in hand D Gbm She leaves home in the early morning G Gm Waving goodbye D Gbm With an absent-minded smile G Abm I watch her go D Gbm With a surge of that well-known sadness G A Dsus4 D And I have to sit down for a while G A D Gb The feeling that I'm loosing her forever G A D And without really entering her world G A D A Dsus4 D I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl Chorus: G A D Slipping through my fingers all the time Gbm Em I try to capture every minute D The feeling in it A Dsus4 D Slipping through my fingers all the time G D Do I really see what's in her mind Gbm Em Each time I think I'm close to knowing D She keeps on growing A Dsus4 D Slipping through my fingers all the time Verse: G Gm Sleep in our eyes D Gbm Her and me at the breakfast table G Gm Barely awake D Gbm I let precious time go by G Gm Then when she's gone D Gbm There's that odd melancholy feeling G A Dsus4 D And a sense of guilt I can't deny G A D What happened to the wonderful adventures G A D The places I had planned for us to go (slipping through my fingers all the time) G A Well some of that we did D But most we didn't A Dsus4 D And why I just don't know Chorus: G A D Slipping through my fingers all the time Gbm Em I try to capture every minute D The feeling in it A Dsus4 D Slipping through my fingers all the time G D Do I really see what's in her mind Gbm Em Each time I think I'm close to knowing D She keeps on growing A Dsus4 D Slipping through my fingers all the time G A D Gbm Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture G A D And save it from the funny tricks of time G A Slipping through my fingers G Gm Schoolbag in hand D Gbm She leaves home in the early morning G Gm D Gbm Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

sobbing counts as a background instrumental, right?
this makes me cry everytime because i remember the mamma mia! movie
Cry everytime i see that scene dont know why its just so emotional
no matter what key you are in the chord on the ‘go’ if “i watch her go” is wrong. play the chord one to the left of that
Regarding the question of what strumming pattern to use, I think it’s more of a picking song. Or freestyle. However, if you feel the need to follow a steady pattern, I suggest DU DD U
the gbm on -2 isnt right, it should be fm
I think +3 sounds the best
strumming ideas anyone??

This is such a sad song and sounds amazing on the ukulele
