You Are My Sunshine

The other night dear
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms

When I awoke, dear
I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried

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 [A7

Please don’t take my [A]sunshine away
So let the sunshine in
Face it with a grin
Smilers never loose

And frowners never win
So let the sunshine in
Face it with a grin
Open up your heart

And let the sunshine in
My mommy [A]told me something
That little girls should know
It’s all [Em]about the devil

And I’ve learned to [C7]hate him so
I know he’ll be [Am]unhappy
Cause I’ll never wear a frown
Maybe [Am]if we keep on [C7]smiling
He’ll get tired of hangin’ ɾound.
