Dolly Parton
Key: Am
Time: 

Chorus:
[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
I’m [G]begging of you please [Am]don’t take my man
[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
[G]Please don’t take him [Em]just because you [Am]can

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

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

Chorus:

Verse:
[Am]you could have your [C]choice of men
But [G]I could never [Am]love again
[G]He’s the only [Em]one for me, [Am]Jolene
I [Am]had to have this [C]talk with you 
My [G]happiness [Am]depends on you
[G]Whatever you [Em]decide to do, [Am]Jolene
