You Gave Me a Mountain

[Intro]  C  Em  F  G#  G

C                          Am
Born in the heat of the desert

My mother died giving me life
C                          Am
Deprived of the love of a father

Blamed for the loss of his wife
C                          Am
You know Lord I've been in a prison
Dm                        G
For something that I never done
C                         Em
It's been one hill after another
F                        G
I've climbed them all one by one
