You Gave Me A Mountain Chords by Marty Robbins

_ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Born in the heat [Am] of the desert, _ _ _ [Dm] my mother died giving [G] me life. _
_ _ [C] _ Despised and disliked [Am] by my father, _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ blamed for the loss [G] of his wife.
You _ [C] _ know Lord I've been [Am] in a prison _ for _ [Dm] something that _ I've [G] never done. _
_ [C] It's been one hill after _ [Em] another _ and _ [Dm] I've climbed them Lord, [G] one by _ one.
_ [C] But this time _ _ [F] you gave me a _ [C] _ _ mountain, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ a mountain I _ _ [F] may never _ _ [C] _ climb. _
_ _ _ It _ _ _ _ _ isn't _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [C] any longer, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ you gave _ me a _ [F] _ mountain _ _ [C] this _ time.
_ _ A _ _ _ _ woman got tired [Am] of the hardship, _ _
_ _ [Dm] tired of the grief [G] and the strife.
_ _ [C] _ Tired of working [F] for [Am] nothing, _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ tired of being [G] my wife. _
_ _ [C] _ She took my one ray [Am] of sunshine, _
_ _ [Dm] she took my pride [G] and my joy. _
_ _ [C] She took my reason [Em] for living, _
_ _ [Dm] she took my small [G] baby boy. _
And [C] this time you [F] gave me _ [C] a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ mountain, a _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [C] mountain I may never climb. _
_ It _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
isn't [F] for him _ _ [C] any longer, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ you gave _ me [F] a mountain _ _ [C] this time. _
