Trace Adkins – This Old Grey Coat

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

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

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

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

              G   B  Em
Well you can, cut my throat
         G    B  Em
You can, sink my boat
    A       B     C             C#m       D 
But you can never stop This Old Grey Coat.

        G     B  Em
When my bones do toll
             G   B   Em
When that's, all she wrote
A          B    C             C#m       D 
I'll fight on inside This Old Grey Coat.

Chorus2:
           G                B
And when I die in this grey coat
          Em                    A
I'm gonna march though Heaven's door
                           B
I'm gonna walk up to Saint Peter
              C                D
And tell him, send me back for more
              G                 B
Cause I'll be damn if I'll just sit around
    Em               A
Why you boys win the war
            G    B   Em
Cause even, when I'm dead
              G   B    Em
Shot full of, Yankee's lead
            A       B        C      C#m    D (Stop)
There ain't nothin' that I'd rather wear instead
                   G    C
Than This Old Grey Coat.

              G    C
This Old Grey Coat
        G    C
I'll go down
                 G    C
In This Old Grey Coat
              G    F C G
This Old Grey Coat.
