The guitar does pretty much the same thing all the way through so there's not many
point in me repeating myself too much! Just make sure the drummer breaks loose.

(Keep Going)

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 a summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene

Chorus

(Do the same but go for the pedal or some sort of FX change and strum hard and shout)

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even because you can

Well, I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Well, 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 to do, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can

i think that their performance of jolene on conan was better than the actual recording of their song, but i guess its also because i saw him singing and everyones right he pours so much emotion into his songs.. i was diappointed tonight, when they came on (conan) the sound on my TV got all crappy. go figure.

sorry guys, where can I get this song, it isn't on any of the albums that I have, White Stripe, De Stijl, White Blood Cells or Elephant. Plz tell I'm not missing one. On second thought, that would mean that there are 10+ song i've never heard, that would be pretty cool.
