Song Name: You Are My Sunshine
Band Name: N/A
Tabbed By: Richard Jones
Notes: 1) I have matched the words to the
          notes to make it easier to 
          figure out.
       2) I've rewritten the lyrics so that
          they fit the notes better but they
          still have the same meaning.

  You are my sun-shine, my on-ly sun-shine.

Continue these riffs with the following lyrics and it sounds great:

The o-ther night dear, as I lay sleep-ing, 
I dreamed I held you there in my arms,
but when I woke dear, I was mis-tak-en,
and I hung my head and I cried.

You are my sun-shine, my on-ly sun-shine
you make me hap-py when skies are gray
you'll ne-ver know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sun-shine away. 

I'll al-ways love you and make you hap-py
if you will on-ly just say the same
but if you leave me to love an-oth-er
you will re-gret it all some day.

You are my sun-shine, my on-ly sun-shine
you make me hap-py when skies are gray
you'll ne-ver know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sun-shine away. 

You told me once dear you rea-lly loved me
and that no one else could come be-tween
but now you've left me and love ano-ther
you have sha-ttered all of my dreams.

You are my sun-shine, my on-ly sun-shine
you make me hap-py when skies are gray
you'll ne-ver know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sun-shine away.
