Back through the years I go wonderin' once again
5        5  -5   6  6       -5  5    -5
Back to the seasons of my youth
6 -5 5 5  5     5  5      4     4   -4        5      5   

I recall a box of rags that someone gave us 
5      5     5     5   -5     6    6    -5     5   -5
and how my momma put the rags to use.
6        -5       5      5  -4 5   -5  5      4  5  5   -5      -4    5
There were rags of many colors and every piece was small 
6   -5  5 5  -4    5  -5      6   6   6   6    6     -5   5    -4
and I didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall
6  -5      5          5    -4    5    -5   5  -5  -5   -5  -5   -5  6    -6
Momma sewed the rags together, sewing every piece with love
-6    6      -5    5    5   -4  5   -5  5    5     -4   5   -5   -4    4
She made my coat of many colors that I was so proud of.
6   -5     5          5   -4    5   -5  5  -4     -5    5  4   4    -4    5
As she sewed she told the story from the Bible she had read.
6  6    -5  5    5   -4  5  -5  5    6  6    6       6     -5     5     -4
About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and then she said
6    6      5      5     6      -5     5       -5      -5     -5     -5   6  -6
"Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness."
-6   6  -5   5    5     5      5    -5   5  5      5     5     -4          5  -5   -4  4
And I just couldn't wait to wear it and momma blessed it with a kiss.

-6   -6  -6  -6 -7  7  7     -7   -6   -6   6    6         5    6
My coat of many colors that my momma made for me.
-6     -6 -6  -7    7       -7   -6  6  6 5  4        -4

Made only from rags but I wore it so proudly.
6  5          5   5     6   -5   5   -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6        -6
Although we had no money, oh I was rich as I could be.
6  -5   5      5   -4 5  -5  5   5     -4   5     -5       -4   4
In my coat of many colors, my momma made for me.

6    -5    5   5      -4  5    -5    5     4     5        5   -5    -4   5
So with patches on my britches and holes in both my shoes.
6   -5  5      5  -4  5  -5   5   6   6   6   -5   5  -5
In my coat of many colors, I hurried off to school.
6      -5  5    5    -4  5    -5   5      -5  -5     -5   -5  6   -6
Just to find the others laughing and making fun of me,
6     -5   5      5  -4  5  -5  5   5     -4  5      -5      -4    4
and my coat of many colors my momma made for me.
6      6  -5 5  5      -4 5  -5       5       -4 -5  5        4 -4    5
And oh I couldn't understand that, for I thought I was rich.
6      6     -5 5    5       -4  5   -5    6    6   6        6         6 -5  5   -5
And then I told them of the love my momma sewed in every stitch.
6    -5   5   5   -4  5    -5  5  -5  -5     -5   -5   -5     6  -6
And I told 'em all the story, momma told me while she sewed
-6      6      -5   5     5  -4  5   -5  5  5       5        -4      5      -5   -4    4
And why my coat of many colors, was worth more than all their clothes.
-6     -6 -6  -6 -7 7         7  -7   -6 -6   6  6        5       6
They didn't understand it and I tried to make them see.
-6  -6 -6 -7 7     -7 -6  6 6   5           4  -4  6 -5 5   5    5     6   -5   5
One is only poor only if you choose to be. It is true we had no money 
-5  -5 -5  -5  -5  -5  6   -6  6  -5   5      5   -4 5  -5 5
but I was rich as I could be in my coat of many colors 
5     -4  5      -5      -4   4    4        3  -4    4
my momma made for me, made just for me
