The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed [G] I held you [D]

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

told me once, dear, that you really loved me, and [G] no one else could come [D] between.
But [G] now you've left me, and you [D] love another.
You have shattered [F#m]
all [D] my dreams.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You [G] make me happy [D]
[G] when [D] skies are gray.
You'll [G] never know, dear, how [D] much I love you.
Please don't take [F#m] my sunshine [D] away.
