Am C G E G E Am

[Verse 1]
Am                  C
Your beauty is beyond compare
      G                 E
With flaming locks of auburn hair
      G               E              Am
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
                      C
Your smile is like a breath of spring
      G                  E
Your voice is soft like summer rain
     G              E               Am
And I just can't compete with you, Jolene

[Verse 2]
Am                      C
He talks about you in his sleep
   G                   E
There's nothing I can do to keep
     G               E               Am
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
                    C
And I can easily understand
     G               E
How you could easily take my man
           G               E              Am
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene

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

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

I'm begging of you don't take my man
           C       G       E
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
 G                   E                Am
Please don't take him just because you can

[Outro]

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
