[Chorus]

Dm      F       C       Dm
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
                             
    C                                  Dm
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man

 Dm      F       C      Dm
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
                      
  C                   Am             Dm
Please don't take him just because you can

[Verse]
        
      Dm        F
Your beauty is beyond compare
              
      C                Dm
With flaming locks of auburn hair
                      
  C                   Am             Dm
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
             
      Dm              F
Your smile is like a breath of spring
                
      C                  Dm
Your voice is soft like summer rain
                
    C           Am             Dm
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene

Jolene

[Verse]
F#
Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
B
Pour myself a cup of ambition
F#                                         C#
And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life
 
F#
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
B
Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
     F#                    C#             F#
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
 
 
[Chorus]
        B
Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
       F#
Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
          B
They just use your mind - and they never give you credit
     G#                  C#
It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
 
B
9 to 5 - for service and devotion
          F#
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
       B
Want to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
  G#                         C#              F#
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm
 
 
[Verse]
F#
They let you dream just to watch `em shatter
       B
You`re just a step on the boss man`s ladder
    F#                                C#
But you got dreams he`ll never take away
 
F#
In the same boat with a lot of your friends
B
Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in
        F#                          C#                   F#
And the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way
 
 
[Repeat Chorus]
        B
Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
      F#
Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
         B
They just use your mind - and you never get the credit
     G#                  C#
It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
 
B
9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
         F#
There`s a better life - and you think about it don`t you
      B
It`s a rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
        G#                      C#
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
 
B
9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
       F#
Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
         B
They just use you mind - and they never give you credit
     G#                  C#
It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
 
B
9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
         F#
There`s a better life - and you dream about it don`t you
      B

        G#                      C#
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
