Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
Next (D major) day, (A major) far from home,
(D major) the brothers planned a repulsive crime
Let us grab (A major) him now,
(D major) fool with him while we've (A major) got
the (D major) time (A major) (D major) (G major) (E minor)
This (G major) they did and (C major) made the most (G major) of it, (D major)
(G major) Tore his coat and flung him in a (D major) pit.
Let us leave (A major) him here,
(G major) All alone (D major) and bound to die.
When some Ish (A major) maelite,
(D major) A (G major) hairy crew, (D major) came riding by. (A flat major) (D major) (A flat major) (D major)
In (G major) a flash,
the (C major) brothers changed (D major) their plans.
(G major) We need Cat,
let's send him if (D major) we can. (E major) (D major)
Poor, poor (A major) Joseph, (B minor) whatcha gonna do? (D major)
Things (G major) look bad for (D major) you,
hey, (E minor) whatcha (A major) gonna do? (D major)
Poor, (A major) Joseph, (B minor) whatcha gonna do? (D major)
Thing (G major) s look bad for (D major) you,
hey, (E minor) whatcha gon (A major) na do? (D major)
Could you use a slave?
You (G major) hairy bunch (D major) of Ishmaelites
Young, strong, (A major) well -behaved
(D major) Going cheap, any reason right
In (G major) a trice the dirty deal was (D major) done
(F major) Silver (G major) coins for Jacob's (D major) favorite son
Then the Ish (A major) maelites
gal (D major) loped off the slave in tow
Off to Egypt (A major) where Joseph (D major)
was not keen to go
It (G major) wouldn't be a picnic, he could (D major) tell
(F major) And (G major) I don't speak
Egyptian very well. (D major) (A major)
(D major) Joseph's (A major) brothers tore (D major) his (G major) precious,
(D major) moldy, colored coat.
Having ripped (A major) it off,
(D major) they next attacked a passing goat.
(G major) Soon the wretched creature
was no (D major) more.
They (G major) dipped his coat in (C major) blood
(G major) and gut (D major) s and gore.
Oh, (B flat major) now, (F major) brothers,
(G minor) how low can you (B flat major) stoop?
You (E flat major) make a sordid (B flat major) group
Hey, (Fsus4) how low can you (B flat major) stoop?
Poor, poor (F major) Joseph
Sold (G minor) to be a (B flat major) slave
Situ (E flat major) ation's (B flat major) grave
Hey, (C minor) sold to be a slave
