Start Jamming...
The other night, dear, as I lay [E] sleeping, I [Dm] dreamed I held you [A] in my arms.
But when [Dm] I awoke, dear, [A] I was mistaken.
So I bowed [E] my head and [Am] I cried,
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You make [F] me happy when skies [E] are gray.
You'll [F] never know, dear, how much [Am] I love you.
Please don't take [G] my sunshine away.
[Dm]
[Am] [Dm]

[E] [Am] I'll always love you and make you happy if you [Dm] will only say [Am] the same.
But if you leave me to love [A] another, [E] you'll regret [D] it all [Am] someday.
[A] You are my [Am] sunshine, my only sunshine.
You make [F] me happy [Am] when skies are gray.

know, dear, how much [Am] I love you.
