Two Coats Lyrics & Chords

By Patty Loveless

Verse 1

(D)Two coats were before me

An old and a new

I asked my sweet master

Oh (A)what must I (D)do



(D)The old coat was ugly

So tattered and torn

The other a new one

Had (A)never been (D)worn



(D)I'll tell you the best thing

I ever did

I took off the old coat

And (A)put on the (D)new



The first man was earthy

And made from the ground

We bore all his image

The whole world around



The next was my savior

From heaven so fair

He bought me this new coat

You now see me wear



I'll tell you the best thing

I ever did

I took off the old coat

And put on the new
