Bm
One night when the moon was bright and the moonlight glade
F#7
That is where I found my little Cherokee maiden
Bm
The memory of that night of love is lingering here
E7 A7
And I know I never will forget
D E7
My little Cherokee maiden I love her so
A7 D
Even though we're far apart
E7
I know I'll never be trading my love for her
A7
For anybody else's heart
F#7 Bm
Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip
E7
And I'll carry her away with me
D B7 Em Gm
And straight as an arrow flies we'll ride to Paradise
D B7 A7 D
My sweet little chickadee my little Cherokee maiden and me
A7 D E7
My little Cherokee maiden I love her so
A7 D
Even though we're far apart
E7
I know I'll never be trading my love for her
A7
For anybody else's heart
F#7 Bm
Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip
E7
And I'll carry her away with me
D B7 Em Gm
And straight as an arrow flies we'll ride to Paradise
D B7 A7 D
My sweet little chickadee my little Cherokee maiden and me
