Patty Loveless - Two Coats Chords

CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO: A


Two coats were before me, an old and a new
                         E           A
I asked my sweet master, what must I do

The old coat was ugly, so tattered and torn
                         E          A
The other a new one, had never been worn

I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
                            E          A
I took off the old coat and put on the new



The first man was earthly and made from the ground
                          E            A
We bore all his image the whole world around

The next was my saviour from heaven so fair
                                E          A
He brought me this new coat you now see me wear

I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
                            E          A
I took off the old coat and put on the new



Now this coat it suits me and keeps me so warm
                              E           A
It's good in the winter, it's good in the storm
                       
My saviour has dressed me in a garland so rare
                                E          A          
He brought me this new coat you now see me wear

I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
                            E          A
I took off the old coat and put on the new

I'll tell you the best thing I ever did do
                            E          A
I took off the old coat and put on the new
