[Verse 1]
 E
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
 A                 G   E
You make me happy when skies are grey
          A     F#             B
You never know, oh, how much I love you
             C       D        E
Please don’t take my sunshine away
G           A                                      A                E
The other night, as I lay sleeping, I dreamt a light,  entered my heart
G       A            E
When I awoke - I was mistaken
 A           C        E               D           E
Ah, but the curtains - were still blown apart

[Chorus]
E
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
 A                G  E
You make me happy when skies are grey
         A     F#             B
You never know, oh, how much I love you
             C       D        E
Please don’t take my sunshine away

 B E
My mama once told me - What a soul should know
                A                    E
It’s about the devil, and I hate him so
          A            G     E
He’ll be crying, if we don’t frown
     D       A       C                   E
And keep on smiling- He’ll stop hanging round

[Chorus]
            D E      A         E
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
 A                G  E
You make me happy when skies are grey
         A     F#             B
You never know, oh, how much I love you
             C       D        E
Please don’t take my sunshine away

[Outro]
             C        D        E
Please don’t take my sunshine away
             C        D        E
Please don’t take my sunshine away
