VERSE ONE

C                     Am
Born in the heat of a desert
   Dm7                   G7
My mother died givin' me life
C                           Am
Despised and disliked by my Father,
Dm7                        G7
Blamed for the loss of his wife.
C                            
You know, Lord, I've been in a 
  Am
prison,
     Dm7                      G7
For something that I've never done;
     C                   Em
It's been one hill after another,
     F                Dm7         
And I've climbed them Lord,one by 
G7
one.

VERSE TWO

C                          Am
My Woman got tired of the hardship
Dm7                        G7
Tired of the grief and the strife
C                     Am
tired of workin' for nothin'
Dm7               G7
Tired of bein' my wife
C                         Am
She took my one ray of sunshine
Dm7                      G7
She took my pride and my joy
C                       Em
She took my reason for living
F           Dm7        G7
She took my small baby boy

A mountain I may never climb;
           F         C
it isn't a hill any longer,
               F            C
You gave me a mountain this time.
