Dance With My Father by Luther Vandross Best song ever!!!!! Bb F Back when I was a child Eb F Before life removed all the innocence Bb F My father would lift me high Eb F And dance with my mother and me and then Bb Eb Spin me around till I fell asleep Ebm/Gb Bb Then up the stairs he would carry me C And I knew for sure F I was loved Bb F If I could get another chance Gm Bb Another walk, another dance with him Cm Gm I’d play a song that would never, ever end Eb F Bb How I’d love, love, love to dance with 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 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 to dance with my father again Eb F Sometimes I’d listen outside her door Bb F Gm And I’d hear how my mother cried for him Eb F I pray for her even more than me Cm7 F I pray for her even more than me Bb F Gm Eb 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 G Am Dm But dear Lord, she’s dyin to dance with my father again Fm Every night I fall asleep C And this is all I ever dream C G F Dm7 G7 G C www.TAB6.com
