                              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.
