_ Sunny lives on a farm in a _ light of the _ space.
Take off your shoes, _ [B] stay _ out of the [F#] race.
_ Lay [C#] down your _ head by the soft river bed.
_ [B] Sunny _ always [F#] _
remembers the words Mama _
[C#] _ said.
_ _ Sunny, [F#]
don't go away, _ I'm here all _ alone.
Our _ daddy's a _ sailor, [B] _
never [F#] comes _ home.
[C#]
Nights are so _ long, _ _ silence goes on.
[B] I'm feeling [F#] so tired, _ not all [C#] that strong. _ _
_ Sunny [F#] works on the land, though he's barely a man.
There's not much to do, [B] but he does what [F#] he can.
[C#] He sits at the window _ of his room by the stairs,
_ [B] Watching _ [F#] the waves drifting soft on [C#] the pier.
_ _ _ Sunny, [F#]
don't go away, _ I'm here all _ alone.
Our _ daddy's a sailor, _ _ never comes _ home.
[C#]
Nights are so long, _ _ _ silence goes on.
I'm feeling [F#] so tired, _ not _ all [C#] that _ strong. _
_ _ [F#] Many years have gone _ by, Sunny's old and _ alone.
Our _ daddy's a sailor, [B] well he never came [F#] home.
_ [C#] Sometimes _ he wonders, how his life might have been.
_ [B] But still from [F#] the grave, Mama's voice haunts him in [C#] his _ dreams.
_ _ Sunny, [F#]
don't go _ away, _ I'm here all _ alone.
Our _ daddy's a _ sailor, _ never comes _ home.
[C#]
Nights are so _ long, _ silence goes on.
I'm feeling so [F#] tired, _ _ _ not all [C#] that _ _ strong. _
_ Sunny, [F#] don't go away. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
