[Verse]
G Em
It's hard for me to lie to you
C G
She comes home to me
C
And we lay awake
G
Til morning breaks
C D
Discussing poetry
G Em
Jolene, we almost never met
C G
Then where would we both be?
C G
We'd be drowning in a sea of wealth
C D
Six figures of misery
[Chorus]
Em C G
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Em C G
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
Em C G
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Em C G
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer space
[Verse 2]
G Em
And it's hard to go to bed with you
C G
Still running through my mind
C G
But you make it so much easier
C D
To leave it all behind
G Em
And then you fly me to the moon
C G
While singing country songs
C G
I would lie in bed til morning breaks
C D
If it weren't for my alarm
[Chorus]
Em C G
Take it easy, I'm new at this Jolene
Em C G
Make it easier for me to turn and leave
Em C G
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Em C G D
Now he's in your thoughts en route to outer space again
[Bridge]
G Em C G
C G C D
(repeat twice)
[Chorus]
Em C G
Make it easy my darling, don't be shy
Em C G
Light a cigarette and then you close your eyes
Em C G
When I walk away, I find I've been replaced
Em C G
Now he's in your bed en route to outer space
