Well, Christy Lee, [D] I could tell that she really [G] felt the coat of many [D] colors.
Mama [G] sewed the rags together.
That song [D] is a true story from my own childhood.
And it's about my mother.
I [D] made it her own.
Made it just for [A] me.
Oh, your mama's gonna be so proud of [F] you.
When she said my mom was gonna be proud of me, I was excited.
But, you know, I'd rather impress her than my mom at this moment.
So, that's hopefully what I did.
[G]
There were rags of many colors.
And every piece was small.
And I didn't have a coat.
And it [D] was way down in the fall.
Mama [G] sewed the rags together.
[C] Sewing every piece with love, she [G] made a coat of many colors.
[D] I was [G] so proud [E] of.
[F#]
[A] Sewing patches on my breeches.
And holes in both my shoes.
In my coat of many colors.
[E] I went off to school.
[A] Just to find the others laughing [D] and making fun of me.
In [A] my coat of many colors.
[E] My mama [A] made for me.
They [D] didn't understand.
And [A] I tried to make them see.
[D] One is only poor [A] if they [E] choose to be.
[A] I know we had no money.
But I was rich [D] as I could be.
[A] In my coat of many colors.
My [E] mama made [A] for me.
In my coat of many colors.
[E] My mama [D] made [A]
for me.
