Coat Of Many Colors
by Dolly Parton

G
Back through the years I go wondering once again
C
Back to the seasons of my youth
G
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
C
And how my momma put these rags to use

G
There were rags of many colors and every piece was small
D7
And I didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall
G C
Momma sewed the rags together sewing ever piece with love
G D7 G
She made my coat of many colors that I was so proud of


As she sewed she told the story from the bible she had read
D7
About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and then she said
G C
Perhaps this coat will bring you much love and happiness
G
And I just couldn't wait to wear it
D7 G
And momma blessed it with a kiss

C G
My coat of many colors that my momma made for me
C G D7
Made only rags but I wore it so proudly
G C
Although we had no money oh I was rich as I could be
G D7 G
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me


So with patches on my breaches and holes in both my shoes
D7
In my coat of many colors I hurried off to school
G C
Just to find the others laughing and making fun of me
G D7 G
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me


Oh I couldn't understand it for I felt I was rich
D7
And I told them of the love my momma sewed in ever stitch
G C
And I told them all the story momma told me while she sewed
G
And how my coat of many colors
D7 G
Is worth more than all of their clothes

C G
They didn't under stand it and I tried to make them see
C G D7
That one is only poor only if they choose to be
G C
Now I know we have no money but I'm as rich as I could be
G D7 G
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me
