[Intro]
Em


[Chorus]
  Em      G      D      Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
     D                                 Em
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  Em      G      D     Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
   D                  Bm             Em
Please don't take him just because you can


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


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


[Chorus]
  Em      G      D      Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
      D                                Em
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  Em      G      D      Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
  D                   Bm             Em
Please don't take him just because you can


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


[Chorus]
  Em      G      D      Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
      D                                Em
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
  Em      G      D      Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
  D                   Bm            Em
Please don't take him even though you can
