Dance With My Father Chords

(ver. 3)
Luther Vandross
C                 G
Back when I was a child
Am            F
Before life removed all the innocence
C               G
My father would lift me high
Am                F
And dance with my mother and me and then


C                     G
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Am                          F
Then up the stairs he would carry me
      C
And I knew for sure
G
I was loved

C              G
If I could get another chance
Am            F
Another walk, another dance with him
Dm                         Am
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
        F                                       C
How I'd love my mother to dance with my father again

C   G   Am   F

C                          G
When I and my mother would disagree
Am                    F
To get my way I would run from her to him
C                          G
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Am                           F
Then finally make me do just what my mama said


C                       G
Later that night when I was asleep
Am                 F
He left a dollar under my sheet
      C
Never dreamed that he
         G
Would be gone from me


C                G
If I could steal one final glance
Am              F
One final step, one final dance with him
Dm                         Am
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
          F
cause i'd love my mother to dance with my father
 C
again


Dm                      G
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
C                    Am
And I'd hear my mama cryin' for him
F                   G
I pray for her even more than me
F                   G
I pray for her even more than me

C                      G
I know I'm prayin' for much too much
Am                      F
But could You send back the only man she loved
Dm                     Am
I know You don't do it usually
    F                                          C
But Lord, she's dyin' to dance with my father again

C   G   Am   F

      C
Every night I fall asleep
    G                  Am
And this is all I ever dream
      C
Every night I fall asleep
    G                  Am
And this is all I ever dream
