RE
Back through the years I go wondering once again
SOL7
Back to the seasons of my/ youth
RE
I re/call a box of rags that someone gave us
SOL7
And how my mamma put these rags to/ use
RE
There were/ rags of many colours,and every piece was small
LA
And I didn't have a coat and it was/ way down in the fall
RE SOL7
Mamma/ sewed the rags together,sewing/ ever piece with love
RE LA
She made my/ coat of many colours,that/ I was so proud of
RE
As she sewed she told the story from the bible she had read
LA
About a coat of many colours Joseph/ wore and they she said
RE SOL7
Per/haps this coat will bring you ,much/ love and happiness
RE
And I just could/n't wait to wear it
LA RE
And mamma/ blessed it with a kiss
SOL7 RE
My. coat of many colours that/ mamma made for me
SOL7 RE LA
Made only rags,but I/ wore it so proud/ly
RE SOL7
Al/though we had no money.oh I/ was rich as I could be
RE LA RE
In my/ coat of many colours,my/ mamma made for me
(CHANGE CORDS HERE)
MI
So with patches on my breaches and holes in both my shoes
SI7
In my coat of many colours,I/ hurried off to school
MI LA
Just to/ find the others laughing and mak/in' fun of me
MI SI7 MI
In my/ coat of many colours,my/ mamma made for/ me
Oh,I couldn't understand it,for I felt I was rich
SI7
And I told them of the love my mamma/ sewed in ever stitch
MI LA
And I/ told them all the story ,mamma/ told me while she
sewed
MI
And how my/ coat of many colours
SI7
is worth/ more than all of their clothes
LA MI
They/ didn't under stand it and I/ tried to make them see
LA MI SI7
That/ one is only poor only/ if they choose to be/
MI LA
Now I/ know we have no money,but I'm as/ rich as I could be
MI SI7 MI
In my/ coat of many colours, my/ mamma made for me
LA MI
