Red River Valley (Medley) You are my Sunshine

THIS IS A VERY TRADITIONAL 1 - 4- 5 SONG




RED RIVER VALLEY - - - - - From this [A] valley they [E] say you are [A] going.     I we will [A] miss your bright eyes and sweet [E] smile.    For they [A] say you are [A7] taking the [D] sunshine,    that has [A] brightened our [E] pathway a [A] while

Come and [A] sit by my [E] side if you [A] love me,    do not [A] hasten to bid me [E] adieu.    But re- [A] -member the [A7] Red River [D] Valley,   and the [A] cowboy who [E] loved you so [A] true

{ CHORUS }  - - - - - You are my [A] sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me [D] happy when skies are [A] gray. You'll never [D] know, dear, how much I [A] love you. Please don't [A] take my [E] sunshine [A] away

Won't you [A] think of the [E] valley you're [A] leaving.   oh, how [A] lonely, how sad it will [E] be?    Oh, [A] think of the [A7] fond heart you're [D] breaking,  and the [A] grief you are [E] causing to [A]me

As you [A] go to your [E] home by the [A] ocean.    May you [A] never forget these sweet [E] hours that we [A] spent in the [A7] Red River [D] Valley,  and the [A] love we ex- [E] -changed mid the [A] flowers.

{ CHORUS } 

Come and [A] sit by my [E] side if you [A] love me.   Do not [A] hasten to bid me [E] adieu.   But re- [A] -member the [A7] Red River [D] Valley, and the [A] cowboy who [E] loved you so [A] true

{ CHORUS } - - - - - You are my [A] sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me [D] happy when skies are [A] gray. You'll never [D] know, dear, how much I [A] love you. Please don't [A] take my [E] sunshine [A] away
