CARRY ME ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN (Pennell - White - Smith) 
performed by Dan Tyminski on CARRY ME ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN (2000) 
 
 
 G  C  G  F  G  G C  G D  G  G   
 
 
G                  C           G                        F   
Every day is a gamble, if you really want to make it through 
          G                           C             G      D        G 
When you live on the side of the mountain, and the babies all need food 
           G                  C         G                 F 
I was the youngest one among us, I got sick and would not eat 
 G                       C         G     D         G 
Daddy prayed accept his fate, but Mommy would not heed 
 
 
 C                   G           G              F 
Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late 
 C                 G     D               G 
Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate 
 C                   G         G               F 
Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me 
C           G                     D               G 
I am but a helpless child, whose life depends on thee 
 
 
 G C  G  F  G  G C  G D  G  G   
 
 
 G                    C           G                 F 
Daddy warned against it, said you may not make it through 
 G                      C             G        D     G    
Momma wrapped me in her arms, crying what else can I do 
             G                        C     G                  F 
There is a place across the mountain top, across the mountain side 
      G                      C           G        D      G 
They say there is a doctor there, might save our baby's life 
 
 
 C                   G           G              F 
Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late 
 C                 G     D               G 
Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate 
 C                   G         G               F 
Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me 
C           G                     D               G 
I am but a helpless child, whose life depends on thee 
 
 
 G C  G  F  G  G C  G D  G  G   
 
 
(tacit) G                       C     G                F 
Now I stand upon the mountain top, before my mother's grave 
      G                 C        G         D        G 
And every year I visit here, to thank her for that day 
 
 
 C                   G           G              F 
Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late 
 C                 G     D               G 
Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate 
 C                   G         G               F 
Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me 
 
 
 C  G  D  G
