[6m] Jolene [1] Jolene [5] Jolene [6m] Jolene
I'm [5] begging of you please don't take my [6m] man
[6m]Jolene [1] Jolene [5] Jolene [6m] Jolene
[5] Please don't take him just because you [6m] can.

[6m] Your beauty is [1] beyond compare with [5] flaming locks of [6m] auburn hair
With [5] ivory skin and eyes of emerald [6m] green
Your [6m] smile is like a [1] breath of spring your [5] voice is soft like [6m] summer rain
And [5] I cannot compete with you Jo-[6m]-lene

He talks about you in his sleep and there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name Jolene
And I can easily understand how you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me Jolene

You could have your choice of men but I could never love again
He's the only one for me Jolene
I had to have this talk with you my happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do Jolene
