Lyrics
(G)Co caine (C)flame in my (G)blood stream.
Sold my coat when I hit Spo kane.
I bought my self a hard pack of cig a rettes in the ear ly morn ing (G)rain.
Late ly my (C)hands, they don’t feel like mine.
My eyes been stung with (C)dust and blind.
I held you in my arms one time.
I lost you just the (G)same.
Jo lene,

It’s (C)too late,
and I found my self (C)face down (G)in the ditch, booze in my hair, blood on my lips, a (Em)pic ture of you hold ing a pic ture of me in the (C)pock et of my blue jeans.
Still don’t (D)know what love means.
Still don’t (D)know what love means.

Sold my coat when I hit Spo kane.

- Is there a karaoke version of "Jolene" with lyrics?
- Yes — this is a free karaoke slide for "Jolene" by Zac Brown Band. The lyrics appear on screen a line at a time and each word lights up exactly when it's sung, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word. A backing plays underneath so you can just sing.
- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
- Can I change the key of "Jolene" to match my voice or capo?
- Yes. The original is in G, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
- Can I slow "Jolene" down to learn the words and chords?
- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
