(originally by The Pine Ridge Boys)

[Intro]
Am Am

[Verse 1]
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
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

[Instrumental]
Am Am Am
Dm Am Dm Am
Am E7 Am

[Verse 2]
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
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

[Instrumental]
Am Am Dm

[Verse 3]
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
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 Em Am
Please don’t take my sunshine away
