[A] [E]
[Gbm] [A] Back to the years, I go wondering once again, back to the seasons [D] of my youth.
[A] I recall the box of rags someone gave to us, and how my mama put those [D] rags to use.
[A] There were rags of many colors, some of them were small.
I didn't have a coat, and it [E] was way down in the fall.
[A] Mama sewed the rags together, [D] sewing every piece with love.
She made my [A] coat of many colors [E] that I was [A] so proud of.
So she told the story from the Bible she had read, about a coat of many colors, [E] Joseph
Warren, and she said, [A] perhaps this coat will bring you [D] good luck and happiness.
[A] I just couldn't wait to wear it.
[E] My mama blessed it [A] with the gifts.
[D] My coat of many colors that [A] my mama made for [D] me.
They don't leave from [A] rags, and I wore it [E] so proudly.
[A] Although we had no money, [D] I'm as rich as I could be, [A] in my coat of many colors [E] that my mama [A] made for me.
[Bb]
So with patches on my breeches, and bows on both my shoes, in my coat of many colors,
[F] I hurried off to school, [Bb] just to find the others laughing, [Eb] making fun of me, [Bb] in my coat of many colors, [F] my mama [Bb] made for me.
Oh, I couldn't understand it, for I felt I was rich.
And I told them of the love my [F] mama sewed in every stitch.
[Bb] And I told them of the story [Eb] mama told me as she sewed, [Bb] how my coat of many colors [F] was worth more than [Bb] all their gold.
[Eb] They didn't understand it, [Bb] and I tried to make them see, one is only poor, [Bb] only if they [F] choose to be.
Now I know we had no money, I [Eb] was rich as I could be, in [Bb] my coat of many colors that [F] my mama made [Eb] for me, made [Bb] for me.
