G
Joseph had a coat of many colors

       F7                   D
Joseph had a closet full of dreams

          F7
That told how he would one day rule his brothers

G                E                       D
    And tore his life apart right at the seams

             F7               D            G
'Cause Joseph's brothers sold him into slavery

         F7                      D
And sent him on his way to Egypt land

     F7                                 G
And the day the dreamer started out for Egypt

         E              F7
The nightmare of Israel began

The dreamer made his bed in Pharaoh's kingdom

But his master's woman layed for him

         F7             D               G
It seems she had her own dreams for the dreamer

E                                      D
And sent him up when he would not give in

                G
But Pharaoh got word about the dreamer

D            F7          G           D
  'Cause Pharaoh took to dreamin' on his own

     G
Pharaoh took a likin' to the dreamer

E                       D          G
Set him free and called him to the throne
[Interlude] G C G C G C G [Bridge]
    D
The dreams that he interpreted for Pharoah

     D
Told about the famine yet to come

        G
He rationed out the food to Pharaoh's kingdom

D       F                       D
  So there'd be enough for everyone
[Verse 3]
            G7         G
The dreamer sent a message to his father

             G7           D
Said, "I'm alive and well in Egypt land"

          G
Said he'd made a place for them beside him

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

Joseph had a purpose to pursue

Joseph had forgiveness for his brothers

G            F      D                    G
   The dreamer  had a dream and it came true

F                  D                 G
Yeah, Joseph had a dream and it came true
