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
Putting off good-bye
Em7 A
Then she took my hand and said
Em7 D - G
Baby don't forget
G
Before you hit the highway
D
You better stop for gas
Em7
There's a 50 in ashtray
D
In case you run short on cash
G
Here's a map and here's a bible
Em7 D G
If you ever loose your way
Em7 D G
Just one more thing before you leave
Em7 A D
Don't forget to remember me
D A
This 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
Em7 G
And even when it's not, I tell her everything's alright
Em7 A
Before we hung up I said
Em7 D - G
Hey momma, don't forget
G D
To tell my baby sister I'll see her in the fall
Em7
And tell mema that I miss her
D
Yeah, I should give her a call
G Em7 D G
And make sure you tell Daddy that I'm still his little girl
Em7 D G
Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be
Em7 A D
Don't forget to remember me
G D
Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray
Em7
I haven't done this in a while
Em7
So I don't know what to say but
D Em7 G D Em7
Lord I feel so small some times in this big ol' place
Em7 D G
I know there are more important things, but
Em7 A D
Don't forget to remember me
