Folk Song Of The Week – Frailing Banjo Lesson: You Are My Sunshine

I usually like to have Jim Woodward sing this song, but since it was requested, I gave it the good ‘ol college try.

It’s a fun song and one that everyone likes to sing along to.

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE

[G]You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me [C]happy when skies are [G]gray

You’ll never [C]know dear, how much I [G]love you

Please don’t take my [D7]sunshine [G]away

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

I’ll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me and love another,
You’ll regret it all some day:

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you’ve left me and love another;
You have shattered all of my dreams:

In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I’ll forgive you dear, I’ll take all the blame.
