this is a really emotional song that i really love. tried to get the chords but

none of the submitted tabs and chords seems to work for me. i haven't tried

strumming this song with this chords but this works for me with my plucking style.

Verse 1

[G] [D]

Back when i was a child

[C9] [D]

Before life removed all the innocence

[G] [D]

My father would lift me high

[C9] [D]

And dance with my mother and me and then

[G] [D]

Spin me around till I fell asleep

[Am7] [C9]

Then up the stairs he would carry me

[Am7] [D]

And I knew for sure I was loved

Chorus

[G] [D]

If I could get another chance

[Em7] [C9]

Another walk, another dance with him

[Am7] [Em7]

I'd play a song that would never ever end

[C9] [D] [G]

How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again

Verse 2

[G] [D]

When I and my mother would disagree

[C9] [D]

To get my way I would run from her to him

[G] [D]

He'd make me laugh just to comfort me

[C9] [D]

Then finally make me do just what my momma said

[Em7] [C9]

Later that night, when I was asleep

[Am7] [C9]

He left a dollar under my sheet

[Am7] [D]

Never dreamed that he would be gone from me

Chorus

[G] [D]

If I could steal one final glance

[Em7] [C9]

One final step, one final dance with him

[Am7] [Em7]

I'd play a song that would never ever end

[C9] [D] [G]

Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again

Verse 3

[C] [D]

Sometimes I'd listen outside her door

[G] [Em7]

I'd hear how my mother cried for him

[C9] [D]

I'd pray for her even more than me

[C9] [D]

I'd pray for her even more than me

[Verse 4]* KEY CHANGE

[A] [E]

I know I'm praying for much too much

[F#m] [D]

But could you send back the only man she loved

[Bm] [F#m]

I know you don't do it usually

[Bm] [E] [A]

But dear Lord she's dying to dance with my father again

[Mini Bridge]

[E]

Every night I fall asleep

[E]

And this is all I ever dream
