Through the years, I go wondering once again.
[C#] Back through the [F#] seasons of my youth.
[G#] I recall a box of breaks someone gave us.
_ And how my mama put those [F#] breaks to use.
[G#] They were breaks of many colors, and every piece was small.
I didn't have a corner, it was way down in the farm.
Mama sewed the breaks [F#] together, she sewed every stitch with love.
[G#] She made my coat of many colors, and I was so proud of her.
_ [G]
And so she told the story from the Bible she had written.
That coat of many colors, [D] Joseph wore and then she said,
[G] Perhaps this coat will bring you [C] good luck and happiness.
[G] And I just couldn't wait to wear it, [A] and Mama blessed it [G] with the piece.
_ [C] My coat of many colors [G] that Mama made for me.

My coat of many colors, [D] I hurried off to school.
Just to find the others laughing [C] and making fun of me.
[G] My coat of many colors, [D] my Mama [G] made for me. _
They didn't understand it, but I felt I was rich.

[G] And I told them all the stories [C] Mama told me while she sewed.
And how my coat of many colors [D] was worth more than [G] all the gold.
[C] They didn't understand it, [G] and I tried to make them [C] see.
One is only poor [G] only if it's [D] used to be.
