Chords by: Glenn Gervais
Tuning: 1/2 step down

Check out the chord chart on this one before playing it. I transcribed it to be 
played alone with an acoustic. All chords with the exception of D have fingers 3 and 4
down on the B and e strings. I think this creates a fuller and more complex sound
that goes really well with this song.

[Verse]
G       Cadd9       G
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
G                   Cadd9
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
Cadd9          
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes
       Cadd9         G      Cadd9
in the early morning rain

[Verse]
G           Cadd9            G
  Lately my hands they don't feel like mine
G                       Cadd9
My eyes been stung with dust and blind
Cadd9
Held you in my arms one time
Cadd9             G      D/F#
Lost you just the same

[Chorus]
Em7      G    Cadd9     G       D/F#
   Jolene      I ain't about to go
Em7     G           Cadd9
  strai-ght... It's too late

  G            Cadd9     G
I found myself face down in the ditch
D
Booze in my hair and blood on my lips
  Cadd9
A picture of you holding a picture of me
       Cadd9             G      D/F#
In the pocket of my blue jeans

Em7             G5        Cadd9
  I still don't know what love means
Em7            G5        Cadd9     [ Cadd9  G/B  A7sus4 ]  D/F#
   Still don't know what love means
  G Cadd9 G         Cadd9 G/B   A7sus4
Jolene        La la la la la la la

[Verse]
G       Cadd9       G
Been so long since I seen your face
   G                   Cadd9
Or felt a part of this human race
          Cadd9
I've been living out of this here suitcase
    Cadd9   G     Cadd9
for way too long

[Verse]
G           Cadd9            G
A man needs something he can hold onto
  G                      Cadd9
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Cadd9                                G    D/F#
Either one of them things will do

[Chorus]
Em7      G    Cadd9     G       D/F#
   Jolene      I ain't about to go
Em7     G           Cadd9
  strai-ght... It's too late

  G            Cadd9     G
I found myself face down in the ditch
D
Booze in my hair and blood on my lips
  Cadd9
A picture of you holding a picture of me
       Cadd9             G      D/F#
In the pocket of my blue jeans

Em7             G5        Cadd9
  I still don't know what love means
Em7            G5        Cadd9     [ Cadd9  G/B  A7sus4 ]  D/F#
   Still don't know what love means

Jolene         La la la la la la la
  G Cadd9 G          Cadd9 G/B   A7sus4
Jolene         La la la la la la la
      G Cadd9 G
la la la

G       Cadd9       G
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
G                   Cadd9
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
