Dance with my father Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][E][F#m][D][D]

[Verse 1]
[A]Back when I was a chi[E]ld
[D]Before life removed all the inn[E]ocence
[A]My father would lif[E]t me high
[D]And dance with my mother and me[E]
And then
[A]Spin me around 'till I fel[D]l asleep
[Dm]Then up the stairs he would carr[A]y me
And I [B]knew for sure
I was [E]loved

[Chorus 1]
If [A]I could get a[E]nother chance
[F#m]Another walk
[D]Another dance with him
[Bm]I'd play a song that would never[F#m] ever end
How I'd [D]love love love
To [E]dance with my father again

[Interlude 1]
[A][E][F#m][D]

[Verse 2]
When [A]I and my mother
Would [E]disagree
[D]To get my way I would run
From [E]her to him
[A]He'd make me laugh just to
[E]comfort me yeah yeah
[D]Then finally make me do
Just what [E]my mama said
[A]Later that night when I was[D] asleep
[Dm]He left a dollar under m[A]y sheet
Never [B]dreamed that he
Would be [Bm]gone from [E]me

[Chorus 2]
If [A]I could steal one f[E]inal glance
One [F#m]final step
One [D]final dance with him
[Bm]I'd play a song that would never[F#m] ever end
'Cause I'd [D]love love love
To [E]dance with my father [A]again

[Bridge 1]
[D]Sometimes I'd listen out[E]side her door
[A]And I'd hear how my ma [E]ma cri[F#m]ed for him
[D]I'd pray for her even mor[E]e than me
[Bm]I'd pray for her even more[E] than me

[Interlude 2]
[A][E][F#m][D]

[Chorus 3]
I [B]know I'm praying for [F#]much too much
But [G#m]could you send back
The [E]only man she loved
[C#m]I know you don't do it usua[G#m]lly
But Dear [E]Lord
She's dying to [F#]dance with my father
[G#m]a gain[C#m]
[Em]Every night I fall asleep

[Outro 1]
And this is all I ever dream
[B][F#]
[E][C#m][F#]
[B]
