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