Carry Me Across The Mountain
Dan Tyminski
G F G F
1. Every day is a gamble, if you really gonna make it through
2. Daddy warned against it, said "You may not make it through."

1. When you live on the side of a mountain, and the babies all need food
2. Momma wrapped me in her arms, crying "What else can I do?"
3.
G F G F
1. As the youngest one among us, I got sick and could not eat
2. There's a place across the mountain top, across the mountain side
3. Now I stand upon the mountain top before my mother's grave
G F C G
1. Daddy prayed to accept his fate, but Momma would not heed
2. They say there is a doctor there who might save our baby's life
3. And every year I visit here to thank her for that day
C G F
Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late
C G D G
Heal my broken body, Death not be my fate
C G F
Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me
C G D G
I am but a helpless child whose life depends on thee
