[Chorus]

Dm       F      C      Dm
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
    C                                   Dm
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can


[Verse]

Your beauty is beyond compare with flaming locks of almond hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

Your smile is like a breath of spring and your voice is soft like
summer rain
And I cannot compete with you Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep and there's nothing I can do to keep
from cryin
When he calls your name Jolene


[Chorus]

Dm       F      C      Dm
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
    C                                   Dm
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can


[Instrumental]

[Verse]

Well I can easily understand how you can easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me Jolene

Well you could have your choice of man but I could never love again
He's the only one for me Jolene

An' I had to have this talk with you my happiness depends on you and
whatever
You decide to do Jolene


[Chorus]

Dm       F      C      Dm
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
    C                                   Dm
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
