Dance With My Father chords by Jessica Sanchez

Chords with lyrics

Intro
F#-C#-Ebm-B

I.
F#F#        C#C#
Back when I was a child
EbmEbm      BB
before life removed all the innocence
F#F#        C#C#     EbmEbm
my father would lift me high
          BB
and dance with my mother and me and then,
F#F#          EbmEbm
Spin me around 'til I fell asleep
AbmAbm            EbmEbm
then up the stairs he would carry me
    BB          C#C#
and I knew for sure I was loved

Chorus 1:
F#F#        C#C#
If I could get another chance,
 EbmEbm      BB           AbmAbm
another walk, another dance with him,
               EbmEbm
I'd play a song that would never, never end
     BB          C#C#         F#F#
How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again

C#-Ebm-B

II.
F#F#              C#C#
When I and my mother would disagree,
EbmEbm          BB
to get my way I would run from her to him
F#F#              C#C#
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah yeah
EbmEbm         BB
and finally make me do just what my mama said
F#F#           EbmEbm
later that night when I was asleep,
AbmAbm       EbmEbm
he left a dollar under my sheet
    BB            C#C#
never dreamed that he would be gone from me.

Chorus 2:
  F#F#        C#C#
If I could steal one final glance,
  EbmEbm       BB
one final step, one final dance with him
AbmAbm             EbmEbm
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
      BB         C#C#          F#F#
'Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again

Bridge:
BB            C#C#
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
F#F#         C#C# EbmEbm     C#-B
and I hear my mother cried for him
           C#C#
I pray for her even more than me,
BB          C#C#
I pray for her even more than me.

F#-C#-Ebm-B

Chorus 3:
  AbAb         Eb MajorEb
I know I'm praying, for much too much
   F minorFm           C#C#
but could you send back the only man she loved,
BbmBbm           F minorFm        C#C#
I know you don't do it usually, but dear Lord she's dying
  Eb MajorEb         AbAb   Eb MajorEb
to dance with my father again.


C#C#            Eb MajorEb         AbAb
Every night I fall asleep this is all I ever dreamed

Eb-Fm-C#-Ab
