KEY OF ?C? 
 
INTRO : STRUM  THE ?C?(Strumbeat) 
C////- C////- C 
 
VERSE ONE 
 
C                     Am 
Born in the heat of a desert 
   Dm7                   G7 
My mother died givin' me life 
C                           Am 
Despised and disliked by my Father, 
Dm7                        G7 
Blamed for the loss of his wife. 
C                              Am 
You know, Lord, I've been in a prison, 
     Dm7                      G7 
For something that I've never done; 
     C                   Em 
It's been one hill after another, 
     F                Dm7         G7 
And I've climbed them Lord,one by one. 

    C              F          C 
But this time,You gave me a mountain, 
             F         C 
A mountain I may never climb; 
           F         C 
it isn't a hill any longer, 
               F            C 
You gave me a mountain this time. 
 
 
STRUM THE ?C? TO GET INTO THE VERSE 
 
 
VERSE TWO 
 
C                          Am 
My Woman got tired of the hardship 
Dm7                        G7 
Tired of the grief and the strife 
C                     Am 
tired of workin' for nothin' 
Dm7               G7 
Tired of bein' my wife 
C                         Am       
She took my one ray of sunshine 
Dm7                      G7 
She took my pride and my joy 
C                       Em 
She took my reason for living 
F           Dm7        G7 
She took my small baby boy 
 
CHORUS 
 
    C               F         C 
And this time, You gave me a mountain 
             F         C 
A mountain I may never climb; 
           F         C 
it isn't a hill any longer, 
               F            C 
You gave me a mountain this time.
