Lyrics

In the middle of an awkward silence
As I confessed all my hopes and my dreams
It was right then and there that I realized
You’d soon be leavin’ me.

CHORUS
Jolene
Auburn hair and eyes of emerald green
You’re the prettiest that I’ve ever seen
Jolene

I’ve loved and I’ve lost and I’ve hurt someone
I’ve been talking out loud in my sleep
I cried out your name in my lover’s bed
I’m afflicted with you Jolene

CHORUS
Jolene
Auburn hair and eyes of emerald green
You’re the prettiest that I’ve ever seen
Jolene

(instrumental)

Well I gave it all up for you Jolene
And I’d give twice as much if you’d stay
But I don’t think I live without you
It’s a terrible game you play

CHORUS
Jolene
Auburn hair and eyes of emerald green
You’re the prettiest that I’ve ever seen
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
