Thank you, I want to do a song now, and this is a song again that we have recorded just recently
She was 83 in July, she'll not be pleased that I told her age,
mother because you look so good.
This song was written by the great Dolly Parton about her life and about her mother
lives are different and our mothers are different
there's a thread that runs through
that we're not that different at all.

_ _ Thank you, I want to do a song now, and this is a song again that we have recorded just recently
and I want to dedicate it to my mother.
She was 83 in July, she'll not be pleased that I told her age,
but I'm only telling mother because you look so good. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ This song was written by the great Dolly Parton about her life and about her mother
and I know our lives are different and our mothers are different
but all of us, no matter where we come from, there's a thread that runs through
and if we talk long enough we can find that we're not that different at all.
This song is called The Coat of Many Colours.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Back through the years I go wandering once again
_ Back to the seasons of [G] my youth _
And I [D] recall a box of rags that someone gave us _
And how my mama put those rags [G] to use
Now there [D] were rags of many colours
And every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it [A] was way down in the fall
[D] Mama sewed the rags together
[G] Sewing every piece with love
She made [D] my coat of many colours
[A] That I was so [D] proud of
As she sewed she told the story
From the Bible she had read
About a coat of many colours
[A] Joseph wore and then she said
[D] Perhaps this coat will bring you [G] good luck and happiness
I [D] just couldn't wait to wear it
And [A] mama blessed it [D] with a kiss
_ [G] My coat of many colours that [D] my mama made for me
[G] Made only from rags [D] but I wore it so [A] proudly
_ _ [D] Although we had no money I [G] was rich as I could be
In [D] my coat of many colours [A] my mama made [D] for me _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] Sewed with patches on my breeches
And hosed both my shoes
In my coat of many colours
[Bb] I hurried off to school
Just [Eb] to find the others laughing
[Ab] And making fun of me
In [Eb] my coat of many colours [Bb] my mama made [Eb] for me
_ Well I didn't understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them all the love
My [Bb] mama sewed in every stitch
And [Eb] I told them all the stories
[Ab] Mama told me while she sewed
In my [Eb]
coat of many colours
There [Bb] was much more than [Eb] all those colours
But [Ab] they didn't understand it
And [Eb] I tried to make them see
[Ab] That one is only poor
[Eb] Only if they [Bb] choose to be
Well [Eb] I know we had no money
[Ab] But I was rich as I could be
In [Eb] my coat of many colours
[Bb] My mama made [Eb] for me
_ In my coat of many colours
My mama [Ab] made for me
Made [Eb] just for me
_ Well done, ma _
[N] Thank you
_ Good to have you here
Well
