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

From crying when he calls your name, Jolene

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

Please don't take him even though you can
