Howdy. Here is our version of Dolly Parton's 'Jolene'. You gotta love a bit o' Dolly. I've also included the chords and lyrics so you can sing and play along. I hope you enoy :)

 
This is great! I was singing along. Great vocals too :)
 
Thank you very much. I'm glad we got you singing along :)
 
Cheers 23skidoo. I'll upload more videos with chords and lyrics. It's good to have a sing along :)
 
Thank you all so much. And yes UkuleleThreads, that is a rocket on the shelf. The sunglasses are because I never know where to look when I'm playing, the sunglasses cover it up a bit. Adz just wanted to look cool 8)
 
That was fun. Thank you. Could you put the chords and lyrics in a format that I can save? I would really appreciate it.

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

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene. Jolene

Please don't take him just because you can.

Am C
Your beauty is beyond compare
G Am
With flaming locks of auburn hair
G Em7 Am
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green.
Am C
Your smile is like a breathe of spring
G Am
Your voice is soft like summer rain
G Em7 Am
And I can not compete with Jolene.

Am C
He talks about you in his sleep
G Am
And there's nothing I can do to keep
G Em7 Am
From crying when he calls your name Jolene.
Am C
Now I can easily understand
G Am
How you could easily take my man.
G Em7 Am
But you don't know what he means to me Jolene.

Am C
You can have your choice of men
G Am
But I could never love again.
G Em7 Am
He's the only one for me Jolene.
Am C
I had to have this talk with you
G Am
My happiness depends on you
G Em7 Am
And whatever you decide to do Jolene.

One of my favorite Dolly songs, and a cool idea, thanks for the post.
