(D major) (G major) (E minor) (G major) (E minor) (G major)
Verse 1
Back through the years
I go wandering once again
Back to the seasons of my youth (C major)
I recall (G major) the box of rags
Someone gave us
How my mama put the rags to use (C major)
There were rags (G major) of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way (D major) down in the fall
Mama sewed (G major) the rags together
Sewing (C major) every piece with love
She made my coat (G major) of many colors
(D major) That I was so proud (G major) of (D major)
As she (G major) sewed she told a story
From the Bible she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph (D major) wore and then she said
"Per (G major) haps this coat will bring you
Good luck (C major) and happiness"
And I just (G major) couldn't wait to wear it
Mama blessed (D major) it with a kiss (G major)
My coat (C major) of many colors
That my mama (G major) made for me
Made (C major) only from rags
But I wore (G major) it so proudly (D major)
Although (G major) we had no money
I was (C major) rich as I could be
In my coat (G major) of many colors
(D major) My mama made for (G major) me (E minor)
So (D major) with (G major) patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried (D major) off to school
Just to find (G major) the others laughing
And making (C major) fun of me
In my coat (G major) of many colors
(D major) My mama made for me (G major)
Oh I (D major) could (G major) not understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My mama sewed (D major) in every stitch
And I told (G major) them all the story
Mama told (C major) me while she sewed
And how (D major) my coat (G major) of many colors
Was worth (D major) more than all their clothes (G major)
But they (C major) didn't understand it
And I tried (G major) to make them see
That (C major) one is only poor
Only (G major) if they choose to (D major) be
Now I know (G major) we had no money
But I was rich (C major) as I could be
(D major) In my coat (G major) of many colors
(D major) My mama made for me (C major)
(D major) Just (C major) for me (G major) (D major)
