[Verse]

          Am                    Am
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
            Dm             Am
I dreamed I held you in my arms
        Dm                   Am
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
     Am       E7        Am    N.C.
So I bowed my head and I cried
 
[Chorus]

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

  Am  E7   Am
 
[Verse]

            Am                    Am
I'll always love you and make you happy
            Dm            Am
If you will only say the same
           Dm                Am
But if you leave me to love another
         Am      E7      Am  N.C.
You'll regret it all some day
 
[Chorus]

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

[Verse]

            Am                     Am
You told me once, dear, you really loved me
           Dm                 Am
And no one else could come between
               Dm               Am
But now you've left me to love another
         Am        E7        Am    N.C.
You have shattered all of my dreams
 
[Chorus]

           Am                Am
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
            F                    Am
You make me happy when skies are gray
             F                     Am
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
             C       E7         Am
Please don't take my sunshine away
 
[Outro]

             G N.C.  Em N.C.   Am
