You Are My Sunshine - Traditional

Tabbed by: Dave S.
Email: Dlgibson@netscape.com
Tuning: Standard
So I figured out the Melody for this song many years ago. So I decided
to add some bass notes to give the song a fuller sound. I have also
tabbed out just the Melody for the ones who are just now learning this
tune. Enjoy.

The Cords:
C
The other night dear as I lay sleeping
F C
I dreamed I held you in my arms
F C
but when I woke dear I was mistaken
G C
and I hung my head and cried.
C
You are my sunshine my only sunshine
F C
you make me happy when skies are gray
F C
you'll never know dear how much I love you
G C
please dont take my sunshine away.
I'll always love you and make you happy
if you will only say the same
but if you leave me to love another
you'll regret it all some day
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
you make me happy, when skies are gray,
you'll never know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sunshine away.
You told me once dear you really loved me
that no one else could come between
but now you've left me and love another
you have shattered all my dreams.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
you make me happy, when skies are gray,
you'll never know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sunshine away.
