It doesn't. The Milky Way galaxy is 100,000-120,000 light-years in diameter. The Sun's mass is nowhere near large enough to make the entire galaxy revolve around itself. The Milky Way appears to revolve around us because of our position on Earth. The Earth spins incredibly fast, and is moving much faster than the sun, so therefore the Sun also appears to be rotating around us. However, the Sun orbits the Galactic core, once every (roughly) 226 million years.
