The Roches - My Winter Coat
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
A G
The fit is generous and loose
D A D
The coat is filled with down of goose
G
Should I feel guilty about that?
D A D
I wouldn't wear the fur of a cat
[Verse 2]
G C G C G
The coat is black, so in New York city
A D A7
It doesn't look dirty, it stays pretty
D A G
The cuffs are purple, which perfectly suits
D A D
A pair, I already had, of boots
[Verse 3]
A G
Can't help sharing on a personal note
D A D
A secret I have concerning the coat
G
One of the reasons that it got my vote
D A D
Is the way it lies open around the throat
[Verse 4]
G C G C G
For me the collar mustn't come too high
A D A7
Because, well all right, my skin is dry
D A G
So each morning I rub my face with oil
D A D
And the fabric, you see, the grease could soil
[Verse 5]
A G
Can we speak a moment about the lining
D A D
After my own heart's designing
G
It's nylon, so your skirts don't wind
D A D
Up in a bunch around you behind
[Verse 6]
G C G C G
When the time comes for the coat to clean
A D A7
You throw this thing in the washing machine
D A G
Drying, you doubt, but the filling does fluff
D A D
I'm here to proclaim, this coat is enough
[Verse 7]
A G
The length of the coat is below the knees
D A D
So in the cold, your legs don't freeze
G
I'm nuts about another one of its charms
D A D
There's plenty of room underneath the arms
[Verse 8]
G C G C G
The coat's not bulky, it weighs about an ounce
A D A7
And it's practically void of any frivolous flounce
F#m G
I will admit, it has shoulder pads
Em D A7
All things considered, it's not so bad
D A G
It looks alright even from the side
D A D
I guess 'cause the bottom isn't overly wide
[Verse 9]
A G
Okay, so you say, you'd prefer something hipper
D A D
Can I just tell you about the zipper
G
I searched for it for many years
D A D
Last one I had, I tore up in tears
[Verse 10]
G C G C G
It turned me into Jack the Ripper
A D A7
But now I stepped in Cinderella's slipper
D A G
It runs from the gullet to just south of the crotch
D A D
And working, it's a task you can hardly botch
[Verse 11]
G
It's made of a material that will not rust
D A D
It won't get stuck, you don't get fussed
G C G C G
It undoes easily in the usual way
A D A7
But you can also pull it up if you'd like to, let's say
[Bridge]
F#m G
There's snaps as well, which I don't even use
Em D A7
They beat out buttons, if I had to choose
[Verse 12]
D A G
I remember the night I went to the store
D A D
Fighting my way across the cloak-stuffed floor
G
Suffocating, I was, it seemed
D A D
When from a rack, this last hope beamed
[Verse 13]
G C G C G
Of all my requirements, I pursued the trail
A D A7
To find furthermore the damn thing was on sale
D A G
It had a small chain at the back of the neck
D A D
So you could hang it on a hook, but it broke, what the heck
[Verse 14]
A G
With the end of each sleeve, I'm totally smitten
D A D
Ample space for to emerge a thick mitten
G
If you wanna be warm, it wins far and away
D A D
It's like walking around in your bed all day
[Verse 15]
G C G C G
I know you're not supposed to be so fond of a thing
A D A7
But today this is my heartfelt inspiration to sing
D A G
I hope you don't think I'm merely trying to be clever
D A D
I wish this coat would last forever
