Dance With My Father Chords

   
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
