Intro: D Bm D Bm 2X
D A
18 years have come and gone
Em7
For momma they flew by
G
But for me they just drug on and on
D
We were loading up that Chevy
A
Both tryin' not to cry
Em7
Momma kept on talking
G
But not good bye
Em A
Then she took my hand and said
Em A F#m-G
Baby don't forget
G
Before you hit the highway
D
You better stop for gas
Em
There's a 50 in ashtray
D
In case you run short on cash
G
Here's a map and here's a Bible
Bm A G
If you ever loose your way
Em F#m G
Just one more thing before you leave
Em A D Bm D-Bm
Don't forget to remember me
D A
Heres downtown apartment sure makes me miss home
Em7
and those bills there on the counter
G
are telling me I'm on my own
D A
And just like every Sunday I called momma up last night
Em G
And even when it's not, I tell her everything's alright
Em A
Before we hung up I said
Em A
Hey momma, don't forget
F#m G D
to tell my baby sister I'll see her in the fall
Em
And tell me-ma that I miss her
D
Yeah, I should give her a call
Em Bm A G
And make sure you tell Daddy that I'm still his little girl
Em F#m G
Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be
Em A G (INSTR. D Em Em F#m G A)
Don't forget to remember me
Bm G D
Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray
A Bm
I haven't done this in a while
Em
So I don't know what to say but
D A C G
Lord I feel so small some times in this big ol' place
Em F#m G
I know there are more important things, but
Em A D Bm
Don't forget to remember me 2X D Bm D
