[Intro]
C#m


[Chorus]
  C#m      E      B      C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
     B                                 C#m
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  C#m      E      B     C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
   B                  G#m             C#m
Please don't take him just because you can


[Verse]
       C#m        E
Your beauty is beyond compare
       B               C#m
With flaming locks of auburn hair
       B            G#m              C#m
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
       C#m             E
Your smile is like a breath of spring
       B                 C#m
Your voice is soft like summer rain
       B        G#m             C#m
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene


[Verse]
    C#m             E
He talks about you in his sleep
     B               C#m
There's nothing I can do to keep
       B            G#m               C#m
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
    C#m            E
And I can easily understand
    B                C#m
How you could easily take my man
         B                 G#m           C#m
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene


[Chorus]
  C#m      E      B      C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
      B                                C#m
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  C#m      E      B      C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
  B                   G#m             C#m
Please don't take him just because you can


[Verse]
C#m                    E
You could have your choice of men
    B             C#m
But I could never love again
   B          G#m           C#m
He's the only one for me, Jolene
   C#m               E
I had to have this talk with you
    B          C#m
My happiness depends on you
        B         G#m            C#m
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene


[Chorus]
  C#m      E      B      C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
      B                                C#m
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  C#m      E      B      C#m
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
  B                   G#m            C#m
Please don't take him even though you can
