We'll Sing in the Sunshine
Gale Garnett, 1964· Songs Well-Known in America · p.356
Chorus:
D D7 G A7 D
We'll sing in the sunshine. We'll laugh every day,
D7 G A7 D
We'll sing in the sunshine, and I'll be on my way.
D D7 G A7 D
I know I'll never love you, the cost of love's too dear.
D7 G A7 D
But though I'll never love you, I'll stay with you a year. (Chorus)
My daddy he once told me, "Hey, don't you love any man.
Just take what they may give you, and give but what you can." (Chorus)
I'll sing to you each morning, I'll kiss you every night.
But darlin' don't cling to me, I'll soon be out of sight. (Chorus)
And when our year has ended, and I have gone away,
You'll often think about me, and this is what you'll say:
(Final Chorus)
We sang in the sunshine, we laughed every day,
We sang in the sunshine, and then went on our way.
