COAT OF MANY COLOURS by Dolly Parton
DBack through the years I go wondering once again
Back to the seasons of my/ Gyouth
I / Drecall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my mamma put those rags to/ Guse
There were/ Drags of many colours, and every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat and it was/ Away down in the fall
Mamma/ Dsewed the rags together, sewing/ eGvery piece with love
She made my/ cDoat of many colours,that/ AI was so proud oDf
DAs she sewed she told the story from the Bible she had read
About a coat of many colours Joseph/ Awore and then she said
Per/Dhaps this coat will bring you ,much/ Glove and happiness
And I just/ Dcouldn't wait to wear it
And mamma/ Ablessed it with a Dkiss
My cGoat of many colours that/ mDamma made for me
GMade only rags,but I/ Dwore it so proud/lAy
Al/Dthough we had no money.oh I/ Gwas rich as I could be
In my/ Dcoat of many colours,my/ Amamma made for mDe
(CHANGE KEY HERE)
ESo with patches on my breeches and holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colours,I/ B7hurried off to school
Just to/ fEind the others laughing and/ Amakin' fun of me
In my/ cEoat of many colours,my/ mB7amma made for/ Eme
Oh,I couldn't understand it,for I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love my mamma/ B7sewed in ever stitch
And I/ Etold them all the story mamma/ tAold me while she sewed
And how my/ Ecoat of many colours
was worth/B7 more than all of theirE clothes
They/ Adidn't understand it and I/ Etried to make them see
That/ Aone is only poor only/ Eif they choose to B7be
Now I/ Eknow we have no money,but I'm was/ Arich as I could be
In my/ Ecoat of many colours, my/ B7mamma made for mEe
YAeah just for Eme.....
