Chords for Libby singing Coat of Many Colors

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Back through the seasons [F] of _ my_
I [C] had a box of ribs that someone gave us
And how my mama put the [F] ribs to use
[C] There were ribs out in the dinko
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a rope
It [G] was way out in the swamp
Mama sewed the ribs together
[F] Sewed every piece we lost
[C] Made my gold many colours
[G] And I was [C] so proud of her
That she sewed the gold for me
From the bible she read
About gold and many colours
[G] And I was more than sad
[C] Perhaps the gold rainbow
[F] Kind of looked like happiness
And I [C] just couldn't wait to wear [G] it
And my mom messed it [C] with gills
[F] Mama sewed the gold many colours
[C] That my mama made for me
[F] Made only for [C]
me [G] So proudly
_ [C] Although we had no money
[F] I was rich like a bee
[C] And my gold many colours
[Em]
My mama [C] made for me
I _ [D] _ _ _
had patches on my breeches
Ones upon my shoes
And my gold
I _ [A] had red dots
[D] Just to buy the others laughing
[G] Making fun of me
[D] My gold many
[A] My mama [D] made for me
I couldn't understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told my mama [A] _ everything
[D] And I told my mama stories
Mama told me what she told
And now my gold many colours
[A] Are more than [D] all the clothes
_ I didn't [G] understand [D] it
And I tried to make them see
[Gm] What _ [D]
they [A] used to be
[D] But I know I had no money
[G] But I was rich as a bee
And [D] my gold many colours
[A] My mama [G] made for me
Made
