CHORUS: [Am] Jolene, [C] Jolene, [G] Jolene, [Am] Jolene
I'm [G] begging of you please don't take my [Am] man [Am] Jolene, [C] Jolene, [G] Jolene, [Am] Jolene [G] Please don't take him [Em] just because you [Am] can
VERSE 1:
Your [Am] beauty is [C] beyond compare, with [G] flaming locks of [Am] auburn hair
With [G] ivory skin and [Em] eyes of emerald [Am] green
Your [Am] smile is like a [C] breath of spring, your [G] voice is soft like [Am] summer rain
And I [G] cannot [Em] compete with you, [Am] Jolene
VERSE 2:
He [Am] talks about you [C] in his sleep, there's [G] nothing I can [Am] do to keep
From [G] crying when he [Em] calls your name [Am] Jolene
And [Am] I can easily [C] understand, how [G] you could easily [Am] take my man
But [G] you don't know [Em] what he means to me, [Am] Jolene
VERSE 3:
You [Am] could have your [C] choice of men, but [G] I could never [Am] love again
He's [G] the only [Em] one for me, [Am] Jolene
I [Am] had to have this [C] talk with you, my [G] happiness [Am] depends on you [G] Whatever you [Em] decide to do, [Am] Jolene
