G  Em
Born in the heat of the desert
Am                       D
My mother died giving me life
G                         Em
Deprived of the love of a father
Am                         D
Blamed for the loss of his wife
G                            Em
You know Lord I've been in a prison
Am                         D
For something that I never done
G                         Em
It's been one hill after another
Am                           D
I've climbed them all one by one

G                     C         G
Oh this time, Lord you gave me a mountain
                C           G     
A mountain that I may never climb
                 C       G
It isn't Lord a hill any longer
G             C             G
You gave me a mountain this time

G                          Em 
My woman got tired of the heartaches
Am                         D
Tired of the grief and the strife
G                       Em 
So tired of working for nothing
Am                     D   
Just tired of being my wife
G                      Em 
She took my one ray of sunshine
Am                       D
She took my pride and my joy
G                      Em 
She took my reason for living
Am                     D    
She took my small baby boy

G                     C         G
Oh this time, Lord you gave me a mountain
                C           G     
A mountain that I may never climb
                 C       G
It isn't Lord a hill any longer
G             C             G
You gave me a mountain this time
G             C     G
You gave me a mountain this time
