Song: You Gave Me A Mountain Tab
YOU GAVE ME A MOUNTAIN
Marty Robbins
C Am
Born in the heat of the desert,
Dm7 G7
My mother died givin' me life;
C Am
Deprived of the love a Father,
Dm7 G7
Blamed for the loss of his wife.
C Am
You know, Lord, I've been in a prison,
F G7
For something that I've never done;
C Em
It's been one hill after another,
F Dm7 G7
But I've climbed them all one by one.
CHORUS
C F C
But this time, Lord, You gave me a Mountain,
F C
A Mountain I may never climb;
F C
And it isn't a hill any longer,
F C
You gave me a Mountain this time.
My Woman got tired of the hardships,
Tired of the grief and the strife;
So tired of workin' for nothin',
Tired of bein' my wife,
She took my one ray of sun-shine,
She took my pride and my joy;
She took my reason for living,
She took my small baby boy.
CHORUS
So this time, Lord, you gave me a Mountain,
A Mountain I may never climb;
And it isn't a hill any longer,
You gave me a Mountain this time.
