I'm begging of you, please don't take my man

Please don't take him just because you can
verse 1
Am C
Her 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
The closer that you get to her
G Am
The more those edges seem to blur
G Em Am
To something you can only call Jolene
Am C
Her voice is soft like siren song
G Am
But when she smiles, there?s something wrong
G Em Am
God can?t protect us from the dread Jolene
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Am
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Em Am
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 2
Am C
We cower here beneath the gaze
G Am
That sets the earth and sky ablaze
G Em Am
Have mercy at the end of days, Jolene
Am C
Our sleep disturbed by growling breath
G Am
Eyes closed against the threat of death
G Em Am
That lies behind the maw of that Jolene
Am C
Her teeth are wide, her mouth agape
G Am
Her claws rend flesh, there?s no escape
G Em Am
From judgement of the Eldritch One, Jolene
Am C
Blackening the summer skies
G Am
With burning wings and countless eyes
G Em Am
We tremble at the thought of you Jolene
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Am
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Em Am
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 3
Am C
Some foolish souls tried to defend
G Am
But their broken minds 'd no time to mend
G Em Am
They fell at the mere sight of you, Jolene
Am C
Before her wrath no foe could stand
G Am
Their corpses piled upon the sand
G Em Am
The blood of gods is on her hands: Jolene
Am C
And as the massacre began
G Am
I saw how easily you took my man
G Em Am
But you don?t know what he meant to me, Jolene
Am C
He screamed about you in his sleep
G Am
And when he woke did naught but weep
G Em Am
In terror of the one he called Jolene
Am C
And in the end, his poor heart caved
G Am
I had to dig another grave
G Em Am
Inside the growing family plot, Jolene
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Am
I beg you, children, don?t disturb her sleep
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Em Am
You?re safe while she slumbers in the deep
verse 4
Am C
You could?ve had your choice in men
G Am
But I will never love again
G Em Am
And his demise is why I?m here Jolene
Am C
Bliss withers from your awful truth
G Am
Gone is the ignorance of youth
G Em Am
The unrelenting mark of you, Jolene
Am C
I?ve seen beyond your auburn hair
G Am
My eyes have met your vacant stare
G Em Am
And I?ve been told I?m hard to scare, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Em Am
I?ve read the books, I?ve found your weakest spot
Am C G Am
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
G Em Am
Before you wake, you?ll be dead and left to rot
G Em Am
Your head will mark my family plot, Jolene
