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

G G C C G G
Oh this time, Lord you gave me a mountain

A A mountain that I may never climb
C C G G
It isn't Lord a hill any longer

You gave me a mountain this time

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

Oh this time, Lord you gave me a mountain

It isn't Lord a hill any longer

You gave me a mountain this time
