Slipping Through My Fingers - Abba | Guitar Chords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Bb                Bbm          F
Schoolbag in hand,   she leaves home in the early morning
Bb           Bbm         F            Am
  Waving goodbye with an absentminded smile
Bb            Bbm       F             Am
I watch her go   with a surge of that well known sadness
Bb                 C
  And I have to sit down for a while

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F    Bb               C              F  A
 The feeling that I'm losing her forever
    Bb             C
And without really entering her world
F    Bb             C                   F
 I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
     C
That funny little girl

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F                    Bb                  F
 Slipping through my fingers all the time
            Am           Gm
I try to capture every minute
    Bb        F
The feeling in it
                    C                   F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
            Bb                    F
Do I really see what's in her mind
                 Am                 Gm
Each time I think  I'm close to knowing
    Bb       F
She keeps on growing
                    C                   F
Slipping through my fingers all the time

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Bb                Bbm          F
Sleep in our eyes,   her and me at the breakfast table
Bb        Bbm        F                Am
  Barely awake I let precious time go by
Bb                   Bbm             F        Am
Then when she's gone,   there's that odd melancholy feeling
Bb                  C          F
And a sense of guilt I can't deny

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
     Bb              C              F    A
What happened to the wonderful adventures
    Bb           C
The places I had planned for us to go
F     Bb                    C            F
 Well,  some of that we did, but most we didn't
    C           F
And why, I just don't know

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                    Bb                  F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
            Am           Gm
I try to capture every minute
    Bb        F
The feeling in it
                    C                   F
Slipping through my fingers all the time
            Bb                    F
Do I really see what's in her mind
                 Am                 Gm
Each time I think  I'm close to knowing
    Bb       F
She keeps on growing
                    C
Slipping through my fingers all the time

[Post-Chorus]
---------------------
F    Bb                 C                 F      A
 Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
    Bb               C
And save it from the funny tricks of time
F F/A                 Bb        C F
  Slipping through my fingers...

[Solo]
---------------------
Bb | F | Am | Gm | Bb | F | C | F 
Bb | F | Am | Gm | Bb 
F                    C                   F
 Slipping through my fingers all the time

[Outro]
---------------------
Bb                Bbm           F              Am
Schoolbag in hand,   she leaves home in the early morning
Bb           Bbm         F            Am
  Waving goodbye with an absentminded smile
