Half a step down.

[Chorus 1]
G
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
C
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
[Verse 1]
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes
G
In the early mornin' rain
G
Lately my hands they don't feel like mine
C
My eyes been stung with dust and blind
Held you in my arms one time
G
Lost you just the same
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em D
Jolene
C G C
Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late
G
And I found myself face down in the ditch
D
Booze in my hair, blood on my lips
Em
A picture of you holding a picture of me
C G D
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Em D C
Still don't know what love means
Em D C Am D
Still don't know what love means
[Chorus 2]
G C Am D
Jolene

[Verse 2]
G
It's been so long since I've seen your face
C
Or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase
G
For way too long
G
Man needs something he can hold onto
C
Nine pound hammer or a woman like you
G
Either one of them things will do
[Pre-Chorus]

Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late

And I found myself face down in the ditch

Booze in my hair, blood on my lips

A picture of you holding a picture of me

In the pocket of my blue jeans

Still don't know what love means

Still don't know what love means
