Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
Back through the years
I go wonderin once again
G 
Back to the seasons of my youth
D 
I recall a box of rags that
someone gave us
G 
And how my momma put the rags to use
D 
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
A 
And it was way down in the fall
D 
Momma sewed the rags together
G 
Sewin every piece with love
D 
She made my coat of many colors
A 
D 
That I  was so proud of
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
A 
Joseph wore and then she said
D 
Perhaps this coat will bring you
G 
Good luck and happiness
D 
And I just couldn't wait to wear it
A 
D 
And momma blessed it with a kiss

So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors

In my coat of many colors

Momma told me while she sewed

And how my coat of many colors

Was worth more than all their clothes
