C# G#/C Back when I was a child A#m F# before life removed all the innocence C# G#/C A#m My father would lift me high F# And dance with my mother and me and then, C#/F F# Spin me around 'til I fell asleep D#dim C#/G# And up the stairs he would carry me D#/G G# And I knew for sure I was loved. Chorus: C# G#/C If I could get another chance, A#m F# D#m Another walk, another dance with him, A#m I'd play a song that would never, ever end F# G# How I'd love, love, love to dance with C# my father again When I and my mother would disagree To get my way, I would run from her to him He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah yeah Then finally make me do just what my mama said Later that night when I was asleep He left a dollar under my sheet Never dreamed that he would be gone from me Chorus: If I could steal one final glance One final step, one final dance with him I'd play a song that would never, ever end 'Cause I'd love, love, love, love To dance with my father again F# G# Sometimes I'd listen outside her door C# A#m And hear my mama cried for him F# G# I pray for her even more than me, D#m G# I pray for her even more than me. Chorus: I know I'm praying for much too much But could You send back the only man she loved? I know You don't do it usually But, dear Lord, she's dying To dance with my father again Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream Ooh, yeah yeah yeah I know You don't do it usually But, dear Lord, she's dying To dance with my father again | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA#m C C# D#m D#dim F F# G G# |
