Dance With My Father chords by Jessica Sanchez

Intro
F#-C#-Ebm-B

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

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

C#-Ebm-B

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

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

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

F#-C#-Ebm-B

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


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

Eb-Fm-C#-Ab
