[Verse 1]
[G]Joseph had a coat of many colors
Joseph [F7]had a closet full of [D]dreams
That told [F7]how he would one day rule his brothers
[G] And tore his [E]life apart right at the [D]seams
'Cause Joseph[F7]'s brothers sold [D]him into slav[G]ery
And sent [F7]him on his way to Egypt [D]land
And t[F7]he day the dreamer started out for [G]Egypt
The night[E]mare of Israel [F7]began

[Verse 2]
The drea[F7]mer made his bed [D]in Pharaoh's ki[G]ngdom
But his master's [F7]woman layed [D]for him
It seems [F7]she had her own[D] dreams for the [G]dreamer
[E]And sent him up when he would not give [D]in
But Pharaoh got [G]word about the dreamer
[D] 'Cause Phar[F7]aoh took to [G]dreamin' on [D]his own
Phara[G]oh took a likin' to the dreamer
[E]Set him free and called [D]him to the [G]throne

[Verse 3]
The dreamer [G7]sent a mess[G]age to his father
Said, "I'm al[G7]ive and well [D]in Egypt land"

For them [D]to come and[D] share his dreams with [F]him
