[Intro]
 Am
 (4 bars)
 
 [Chorus]
   Am      C       G       Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
      G                                  Am
 I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
   Am      C       G      Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    G                   Em             Am
 Please don't take him just because you can
 
 [Verse]
        Am        C
 Your beauty is beyond compare
        G                Am
 With flaming locks of auburn hair
        G             Em              Am
 With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
        Am             C
 Your smile is like a breath of spring
        G                  Am
 Your voice is soft like summer rain
        G         Em             Am
 And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
 
 [Verse]
     Am             C
 He talks about you in his sleep
      G                Am
 There's nothing I can do to keep
        G             Em               Am
 From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
     Am            C
 And I can easily understand
     G                 Am
 How you could easily take my man
          G                  Em           Am
 But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
 
 [Chorus]
   Am      C       G       Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
       G                                 Am
 I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
   Am      C       G       Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
   G                    Em             Am
 Please don't take him just because you can
 
 [Verse]
 Am                    C
 You could have your choice of men
     G              Am
 But I could never love again
    G           Em           Am
 He's the only one for me, Jolene
    Am               C
 I had to have this talk with you
     G           Am
 My happiness depends on you
     G           Em           Am
 Whatever you decide to do, Jolene
 
 [Chorus] 
   Am      C       G       Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
       G                                 Am
 I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
   Am      C       G       Am
 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
   G                    Em            Am
 Please don't take him even though you can
