Capo 4th fret
 
[Intro]
Em C G D
 
[Verse 1]
       Em                C                G     D
Well Jolene unlocked the thick, breezeway door,
Em                  C             G        D
Like she'd done one hundred times before.
    Em              C                G        D
Jolene smoothed her dark hair in the mirror.
    Em               C             G                   D
She folded the towel carefully and put it back in place.
 
[Chorus]
    Em    C       G        D         Em   C   G   D
Yeah I... want to pull you down into bed.
Em   C         G         D       Em   C   G   D
I... want to cast your face in lead
    Em            C        G      D
Well every time I pull you close,
Em      C              G      D
Push my face into your hair,
Em              C       G       D
Cream rinse and tobacco smoke,
    Em              C               G     D
That sickly scent is always, always there.
 
[Verse 2]
       Em                C               G   D
Jolene heard her father's uneven snores.
Em                  C             G               D
Right then she knew there must be something more.
    Em              C                G   D
Jolene heard the singing in the forest.
    Em               C             G                   D
She opened the door quietly and stepped into the night.
 
[Chorus]
    Em  C         G         D        Em    C   G   D
Yeah I... want to throw you out into space
Em   C       G      D       Em    C     G     D
I... want to do whatever it takes, takes, takes.
    Em            C        G      D
Well every time I pull you close,
Em      C              G      D
Push my face into your hair,
Em              C       G       D
Cream rinse and tobacco smoke,
    Em              C               G     D
That sickly scent is always, always there.

I believe the capo should be on the 4th fret to be true to the recording, great tabs otherwise though!
