Mountains Tab

by Lonestar


hey guys, this is my first tab so belenient if i mess up, but i'm pretty sure everything 
accurate. you might just have to figure out the strum patterns on your own


                                    
Lucinda Jones workin' at the IHOP:
                                              
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs an' tears
                         
She's waited on every creed an' color,
                                    
While waitin' on this day to get here
                               
Graveyard shifts, two bit tips,
           
Makin' every quarter count,
                                  
Was worth it all to see her son,
        
In that cap an' gown

                           CHORUS
                
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,

Lose your grip, trip an' fall
     
When you can't lean on no-one else:
    
That's when you find yourself
      
I've been around and I've noticed that
    
Walkin's easy when the road is flat
                                                        
Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time
                                               
Yeah the good Lord gave us mountains,
                                                       
So we could learn how to climb

                           
Private Bobby Dunn came back from the war
                                                   
Lost his leg but they couldn't take his will
                            
Hell bent to run in that local marathon
                                                      
He trained through the endless pain an' pills
                            
It hurt so bad that sometimes


He just had to cry
                                
He didn't stop until he crossed
         
That finish line


(CHORUS)

    
This world ain't fair
         
It can knock you on your butt
      
You can just lie there
                 
Or you can get back up
                             
You gotta get back up

(CHORUS)
