Dance With My Father Luther Vandross
Best song ever!!!!!
[Bb]Back when I was a chi[F]ld
[Eb]Before life removed[F] all the innocence
[Bb]My father would lift [F]me high
[Eb]And dance with my mother and me [F]and then
[Bb]Spin me around till I fell a[Eb]sleep
[Ebm/F#]Then up the stairs he would car[Bb]ry me
And I knew[C] for sure
I was lov[F]ed
[Bb]If I could get anothe[F]r chance
[Gm]Another walk, another d[Bb]ance with him
[Cm]Iā??d play a song that would never, ever [Gm]end
[Eb]How Iā??d love, love, love to dance wit[F]h my father again [Bb]
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
Heā??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
If I could steal one final glance
One final step, one final dance with him
Iā??d play a song that would never, ever end
Cause Iā??d love, love, love to dance with my father again
[Eb]Sometimes Iā??d listen outside her do[F]or
[Bb]And Iā??d hear how my m[F]other cried for him [Gm]
[Eb]I pray for her even more than [F]me
[Cm7]I pray for her even more tha[F]n me
[Bb] [F] [Gm] [Eb]
I [C]know Iā??m prayin for much too mu[G]ch
But could[Am] You send back the only man she loved[F]
[Dm]I know You donā??t do it usually[Am]
But dear Lord, sheā??[F]s dyin to dance with my fa[G]ther again[Am] [Dm]
[Fm]Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream[C]
[C] [G] [F] [Dm7] [G7] [G] [C]
