Capo: 2

Coat of Many Colors - Dolly Parton Capo 2 (Or adjust Capo if nesscessary)

^GBack through the years I go wonderin once again Back to the seasons of my ^Cyouth I re^Gcall a box of rags that someone gave us And how my momma put the rags ^Cto use

There were ^Grags of many colors Every piece was small

And I didnt have a coat

And it was ^Dway down in the fall Momma ^Gsewed the rags together Sewin ^Cevery piece with love She made my ^Gcoat of many colors That ^DI was so ^Gproud of

As she sewed, she told a story From the bible, she had read About a coat of many colors

Joseph ^Dwore and then she said ^GPerhaps this coat will bring you Good ^Cluck and happiness And I just ^Gcouldnt wait to wear it And momma ^Dblessed it with a ^Gkiss

My ^Ccoat of many colors That my ^Gmomma made for me Made ^Conly from rags But I ^Gwore it so ^Dproudly Al^Gthough we had no money I was ^Crich as I could be In my ^Gcoat of many colors My ^Dmomma made for ^Gme

So with ^Apatches on my britches Holes in both my shoes

In my coat of many colors

I ^Ehurried off to school Just to ^Afind the others laughing And ^Dmaking fun of me In my ^Acoat of many colors My ^Emomma made for ^Dme

And oh I ^Acouldnt understand it For I felt I was rich

And I told them of the love

My momma ^Esewed in every stitch And I ^Atold em all the story Momma ^Dtold me while she sewed And how my ^Acoat of many colors Was worth ^Emore than all their ^Aclothes

But they ^Ddidnt understand it And I ^Atried to make them see That ^Done is only poor Only ^Aif they choose to ^Ebe Now I ^Aknow we had no money But I was ^Drich as I could be In my ^Acoat of many colors E D A* My momma made for me

*Let last note ring
