Jolene

(Capo 2)

Chorus:

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, I'm begging of you, please don't take my man

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, please don't take him just because you can

 

Your beauty is beyond compare, with flaming locks of auburn hair

With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green. Your smile is like a breath of spring

Your voice is soft like summer rain, and I cannot compete with you, Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep, 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. (Chorus)

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 you’ll do, Jolene (Chorus)
