Lyrics + Chords:

 

                  C

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

                      F                               C
You make me happy when skies are grey

                F                                  C
You never know, dear, how much I love you

                                G            C
Please don't take my sunshine away

               C

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
               F                      C

I dreamt I held you in my arms

            F                                  C
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
                    G                    C

So I hung my head, and I cried

                  C

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

                      F                               C
You make me happy when skies are grey

                F                                  C
You never know, dear, how much I love you

                                G            C
Please don't take my sunshine away

                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 one day

                  C

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

                      F                               C
You make me happy when skies are grey

                F                                  C
You never know, dear, how much I love you

                                G            C
Please don't take my sunshine away

                                G            C
Please don't take my sunshine away
