1. I hear the cottonwoods whisp'rin' above,

             G             Bm               C               G 
     The ole hootie owl hootie-hoo's to the dove,

    Does my lover feel what I feel, when he comes near?

    The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low,

    "Tammy! Tammy! You love him so!"

    When the night is warm, soft and warm I long for his charms, 
 
        Bm            Em        G                   D      - D7 
    I'd sing like a violin, if I were in his arms ! 
 
             G            Bm                   C                  G 
     Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of!

    Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love!
