_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ That when I was [F] a _ _ child, _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ before life removed [F] all the _ innocence, [Bb] _
_ _ my father [F] would lift me
high _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
and _ [Eb] _ dance with [Cm] my mother [F] and me.
And [Bb]
then spin me around till [Eb] I fell asleep.
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ Then
up the stairs he would [Bb]
carry me.
_ _ And I [C]
knew for sure I was [F] _
_ loved.
_ _ _ [Bb] If I could get _ _ [Dm] _
another
[F] _ chance, _ _ [Gm] _
another _ walk, _ _ [Eb] _
another _ dance with [Cm] him, _ I'd play a song that would [Gm] _
never, never end.
How [Eb] I'd love, love, _ love [F] to dance with my father _ [Bb] _
_ again.
_ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb]
When I and my mother would [F] _
disagree, _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
to get my [Bb] way I would [Eb]
run [F] from [Bb] her to him.
_ He'd make me laugh just [F] to
comfort me.
_ Yeah, [Eb] yeah.
Then _ [Bb] finally make [F] me do just what my mama [Bb] said.
_ Later that night when I [Eb]
was asleep, _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ he left the dollar [Bb] under my sheet.
_ Never [C]
dreamed that he would be [Cm]
gone from [F] _ me.
_ [Bb] If I could _ still [F] one _ final
glance, _ [Gm] one final _ step, _ [Eb] one _ final dance with [Cm] him, I'd play a song that would [Gm] _
never, never end.
Cause I'd [Eb]
love, love, love _ [F] to dance with my father _ [Bb]
again.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ Sometimes I'd listen _ [F]
outside her _ door _ [Bb] and I'd hear how [F] my
mother [Gm]
cried for _ him.
_ _ [Eb] _
_ I'd pray for her even [F]
more than _ me.
_ _ [Cm] _
_ I'd pray for her even [F]
more than _ me. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] I know I'm praying _ [G] for much too _ much.
_ [Am] But could you send back [F] the only _ man
she [D] loved?
I know you don't do it [Am] _
usually.
_ _ But dear [F] _
Lord, [C] she's dying _ [G] to dance with my father _ [Am] _
_ again.
_ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever [C] dream.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
