Your beauty is beyond compare with flaming locks of auburn hair

Your smile is like a breath of spring and your voice is soft like summer rain

Verse 2 (same chord progression):
Well, I can easily understand how you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene

An' I had to have this talk with you, my happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
