Trace Adkins - This Old Grey Coat


     G+G
Well they gave me this old coat
       C majorC       G+G
Said it will keep you might warm
    C majorC          G+G
It will see you through the winter
     A augmentedA     D MajorD
It's your by god uniform
   G+G
So I wear it everyday
   C majorC       G+G
And I sleep in it at night
     C majorC        G+G
Now it's twenty shade of grey
    A augmentedA          D MajorD
And the waist has shrunk too tight
    BB         E minorEm
And the bottom's caked and muddy
    BB        E minorEm
And the buttons are half gone
  A augmentedA  BB      C majorC
But just like you and me
   C# minorC#m          D MajorD
This Old Grey Coat wears on

Chorus:
      G+G        BB
And when I die in this grey coat
     E minorEm          A augmentedA
I'm gonna march though Heaven's door
              BB
I'm gonna walk up to Saint Peter
       C majorC        D MajorD
And tell him, send me back for more
       G+G         BB
Cause I'll be damn if I'll just sit around
  E minorEm        A augmentedA
Why you boys win the war
      G+G  BB  E minorEm
Cause even, when I'm dead
       G+G  BB  E minorEm
Shot full of, Yankee's lead
     A augmentedA    BB    C majorC    C# minorC#m D MajorD
And every part of me keeps hangin' by a thread
         G+G  C majorC G+G C majorC
Of This Old Grey Coat

    G+G
When I think of all the places
     C majorC        G+G
This old coat and me have been
      C majorC        G+G
Through the fat and lean and in between
    A augmentedA           D MajorD
In the weak through thick and thin
     G+G
From the ballrooms down in Richmond
    C majorC       G+G
To the top of Mary's Height
   C majorC       G+G
From Manasas to The Wilderness
   A augmentedA       D MajorD
And a hundred other fights
    BB        E minorEm
Now the collars torn and tattered
    BB         E minorEm
And the elbow's wore clean through
  A augmentedA   BB  C majorC
But put me in a pinch
   C# minorC#m   D MajorD
This Old Grey Coat will do


      G+G        BB
And when I die in this grey coat
       E minorEm      A augmentedA
And when they come to bury me
             BB
They commenced a speak of fightin'
  C majorC          D MajorD
And singin', Mirror Lord Thieves
       G+G         BB
Well be damn sure I ain't just sleepin'
    E minorEm       A augmentedA
Cause I flat out guarantee
      G+G  BB  E minorEm
That even, when I'm dead
       G+G  BB  E minorEm
Shot full of, Yankee's lead
     A augmentedA    BB       C majorC   C# minorC#m  D MajorD
That the toughest part of lives on in every shred
         G+G  C majorC G+G C majorC
Of This Old Grey Coat


       G+G  BB E minorEm
Well you can, cut my throat
     G+G  BB E minorEm
You can, sink my boat
  A augmentedA    BB   C majorC       C# minorC#m    D MajorD
But you can never stop This Old Grey Coat


    G+G   BB E minorEm
When my bones do toll
       G+G  BB  E minorEm
When that's, all she wrote
A augmentedA     BB  C majorC       C# minorC#m    D MajorD
I'll fight on inside This Old Grey Coat.


Chorus:
      G+G        BB
And when I die in this grey coat
     E minorEm          A augmentedA
I'm gonna march though Heaven's door
              BB
I'm gonna walk up to Saint Peter
       C majorC        D MajorD
And tell him, send me back for more
       G+G         BB
Cause I'll be damn if I'll just sit around
  E minorEm        A augmentedA
Why you boys win the war
      G+G  BB  E minorEm
Cause even, when I'm dead
       G+G  BB  E minorEm
Shot full of, Yankee's lead
      A augmentedA    BB    C majorC   C# minorC#m  D MajorD
There ain't nothin' that I'd rather wear instead
          G+G  C majorC
Than This Old Grey Coat


       G+G  C majorC
This Old Grey Coat
    G+G  C majorC
I'll go down
         G+G  C majorC
In This Old Grey Coat
       G+G  FF C majorC G+G
