CHORUS 1:
C
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
            F                    C
You make me happy when skies are gray.
             F                     C
You'll never know dear, how much I love you,
                     G        C
Please don't take my sunshine away.


VERSE 1:
C
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping,
            F              C
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
       F                     C
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken,
              G        C
And I hung my head and cried.


REPEAT CHORUS


VERSE 2:
C
I'll always love you and make you happy,
            F            C
If you will only say the same.
           F                   C
But if you leave me to love another,
                 G        C
You'll regret it all some day.


REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3:
C
You told me once, dear, you really loved me,
           F                  C
And no one else could come between.
               F                  C
But now you've left me and love another,
                   G      C
You have shattered all my dreams:


REPEAT CHORUS


VERSE 4:
C
I'll always love you and make you happy,
            F            C
If you will only say the same.
           F                   C
But if you leave me to love another,
              G           C
You'll regret it all some day.


CODA:
C
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
            F                    C
You make me happy when skies are gray.
             F                     C
You'll never know dear, how much I love you,
                     G        C
Please don't take my sunshine away.(Fade)
