[Verse 1]
E E A7 E
In a room with soft satin pillows
E E A7 E
Cracklin' fireplace keeps us warm
E E A7 E
Whisprin' wind through weepin' willows, and
E E A7 E
Sweet Wanomi restin' in my arms
[Verse 2]
E E A7 E
In a soft light her eyes are gleamin'
E E A7 E
Pretty little hand covers up her mouth when she yawns
E E A7 E
Wake me up, ahh I must be dreamin' that, uh
E E A7 E
Sweet Wanomi restin' in my arms
[Verse 3]
E E A7 E
Sleepy kisses, warm me softly
E E A7 E
Get much warmer later on
E E A7 E
I reach for the light and turn it off, uh huh

Sweet Wanomi restin' in my arms
