Coat of Many Colors(Chords)

	        D  
     Back through the years I go wondering once again  
  
                                G7  
     Back to the seasons of my/ youth  
  
           D  
     I re/call a box of rags that someone gave us  
  
                                        G7  
     And how my mamma put these rags to/ use  
  
  
                D       
     There were/ rags of many colours,and every piece was small  
  
                                         A  
     And I didn't have a coat and it was/ way down in the fall  
  
             D                                G7  
     Mamma/ sewed the rags together,sewing/ every piece with love  
  
                   D                          A  
     She made my/ coat of many colours,that/ I was so proud of  
       
      D  
     As she sewed she told the story from the bible she had read  
  
                                           A  
     About a coat of many colours Joseph/ wore and then she said  
  
           D                                   G7  
     Per/haps this coat will bring you, good/luck and happiness  
  
                       D  
     And I just could/n't wait to wear it  
  
                 A                    D  
     And mamma/ blessed it with a kiss  
  
          G7                         D  
     My. coat of many colours that/ my mamma made for me
