       Am           C
You’re beautiful, beyond compare

Takes more than beauty and 
  Am
seductive stares

a happy man

Jolene, I'm a woman too
    Em                 Am
Thе games you play are nothing new

So you don't want 
                 Em

We've been deep in love 
    C
for twenty years
  G               
I raised that man, 
  Am
I raised his kids
  G                      
I know my man better than 
            Em
he knows himself (Yeah, what?)
Am           C
I can easily understand
    G                Am
Why you're attracted to my man
              G                 
But you don't want this smoke, 
              Em            Am  Em
so shoot your shot with someone else 

(You heard me)
 
 
[Chorus]

  Am      C       G       Em
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    G

Em            Am   Em

  Am      C          G        Am
Jolene, I know I’m a queen, Jolene
            G             Em
I’m still a Creole banjee bench 

from Louisianne (Don't try me)
 
 
[Verse]

          Am                C
There’s a thousand girls in every room
     G                Am
That act as desperate as you do
         G                
You're a bird, go on and 
                Am  Em
sing your tune, Jolene (What?)
  Am               C
I had to have this talk with you
         G               Am
'Cause I hate to have to act the fool
     G                
Your peace depends on 
Em                    Am
how you move, Jolene
 
 
[Bridge]
              F             G
Me and my man crossed those valleys
Fdim              
Highs and lows and 
     Am
everything between
           G       
Good deeds roll in 
              Gm Dm
like tumblin' weeds
              Em
I sleep good, happy
           F           
'Cause you can’t dig up   
    G
our planted seeds
Am                         G     
I know my man's gon' stand by me, 
                   Am
breathin' in my gentle breeze (Ah)

I crossed those valleys

Highs and lows and   
      Am
everything between
                G                  Dm
Good deeds roll in like tumblin' weeds
         Em
Good and happy
F                            G
'Cause you can't dig up them planted seeds
  Gm              Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
              G   
I'ma stand by her, 
                        Am
she will stand by me, Jolene
 
 
[Outro]

              G     
I'ma stand by him, 
                 Em
he gon' stand by me
               F   
(I'ma stand by her, 
                  G
she gon' stand by me)
              D    
I'ma stand by him,
