You Gave Me A Mountain Elvis Presley
[C]Born in the heat of the[Am] desert,
M[Dm7]y mother died givin' m[G7]e life;
[C]Deprived of the love a[Am] Father,
[Dm7] Blamed for the loss of hi[G7]s wife.
[C]You know, Lord, I've been in a[Am] prison,
For[F] something that I've never[G7] done;
It's[C] been one hill after[Em] another,
But[F] I've climbed the[Dm7]m all one b[G7]y one.
CHORUS
But[C] this time, Lord, You[F] gave me a[C] Mountain,
A Mountain I [F]may never [C]climb;[G]
[C]And it isn't a[F] hill any[C] longer,
You gave me a[F] Mountain this[C] time[G].
[C]My Woman got tired of the[Am] hardships,
Tire[Dm7]d of the grief and th[G7]e strife;
[C]So tired of workin' fo[Am]r nothin',
[DM7] Tired of bein' m[G7]y wife,
[C]She took my one ray of sun[Am]-shine,
She[F] took my pride and my[G7] joy;
She[C] took my reason for[Em] living,
She[F] took my[Dm7] small bab[G7]y boy.
CHORUS
So[C] this time, Lord, you[F] gave me a[C] Mountain,
A Mountain[F] I may never[C] climb;[G]
[C]And it isn't [F]a hill any[C] longer,
You gave me a[F] Mountain this[C] time.[G] o o o
