The Roches - My Winter Coat
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
The fit is generAous and Gloose
The Dcoat is filled with Adown of Dgoose
Should I feel guilty about Gthat?
I wouldn't Dwear the Afur of a Dcat
[Verse 2]
The Gcoat is black, so in CNew York Gcity C G
It Adoesn't look dirty, it Dstays pretA7ty
The Dcuffs are purple, which Aperfectly Gsuits
A Dpair, I already Ahad, of Dboots
[Verse 3]
Can't help sharing on a Apersonal Gnote
A Dsecret I have conAcerning the Dcoat
One of the reasons that it Ggot my vote
Is the way it lies Dopen aAround the Dthroat
[Verse 4]
For Gme the collar mustn't Ccome too Ghigh C G
BeAcause, well all right, my Dskin is A7dry
So each Dmorning I rub my Aface with Goil
And the Dfabric, you see, the Agrease could Dsoil
[Verse 5]
Can we speak a moment aAbout the Glining
After Dmy own Aheart's deDsigning
It's nylon, so your skirts don't Gwind
Up in a Dbunch aAround you Dbehind
[Verse 6]
GWhen the time comes for the Ccoat to Gclean C G
You Athrow this thing in the Dwashing maA7chine
DDrying, you doubt, but the Afilling does Gfluff
I'm Dhere to proclaim, this Acoat is eDnough
[Verse 7]
The length of the coat is beAlow the Gknees
So in the Dcold, your Alegs don't Dfreeze
I'm nuts about another one of its Gcharms
There's plenty of Droom underAneath the Darms
[Verse 8]
The Gcoat's not bulky, it Cweighs about an Gounce C G
And it's Apractically void of any Dfrivolous A7flounce
I F#mwill admit, it has shoulder Gpads
EmAll things considered, it's Dnot so A7bad
It Dlooks alright even Afrom the Gside
I guess 'cause the Dbottom isn't Aoverly Dwide
[Verse 9]
Okay, so you say, you'd preAfer something Ghipper
DCan I just tell you aAbout the Dzipper
I searched for it for many Gyears
Last one I Dhad, I tore Aup in Dtears
[Verse 10]
It Gturned me into CJack the GRipper C G
But Anow I stepped in CindeDrella's A7slipper
It Druns from the gullet to just Asouth of the Gcrotch
And working, it's a Dtask you can Ahardly Dbotch
[Verse 11]
It's made of a material that will not Grust
It won't get Dstuck, you Adon't get Dfussed
It unGdoes easily in the Cusual Gway C G
But you can Aalso pull it up if you'd Dlike to, let's A7say
[Bridge]
There's F#msnaps as well, which I don't even Guse
They Embeat out buttons, if DI had to A7choose
[Verse 12]
I reDmember the night I Awent to the Gstore
DFighting my way across the Acloak-stuffed Dfloor
Suffocating, I was, it Gseemed
When from a Drack, this Alast hope Dbeamed
[Verse 13]
Of Gall my requirements, I purCsued the Gtrail C G
To Afind furthermore the damn Dthing was on A7sale
It Dhad a small chain at the Aback of the Gneck
So you could Dhang it on a hook, but it Abroke, what the Dheck
[Verse 14]
With the end of each sleeve, I'm Atotally Gsmitten
DAmple space for to eAmerge a thick Dmitten
If you wanna be warm, it wins far and aGway
It's like walking aDround in your Abed all Dday
[Verse 15]
I Gknow you're not supposed to be so Cfond of a Gthing C G
But toAday this is my heartfelt inspiDration to A7sing
I Dhope you don't think I'm merely Atrying to be Gclever
I wish this Dcoat would Alast forDever
