18 years have come and gone

For momma they flew by
G
But for me they just drug on and on
D
We were loading up that Chevy

Both tryin' not to cry
E
Momma kept on talking
G
Putting off good-bye
E A
Then she took my hand and said
E D - G
Baby don't forget
G
Before you hit the highway
D
You better stop for gas
E
There's a 50 in ashtray

In case you run short on cash

Here's a map and here's a bible
E D G
If you ever loose your way
E D G
Just one more thing before you leave
E A D
Don't forget to remember me

This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home
E
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
E G
And even when it's not, I tell her everything's alright
E A
Before we hung up I said
E D - G
Hey momma, don't forget
G D
to tell my baby sister I'll see her in the fall
E
And tell mema that I miss her
D
Yeah, I should give her a call
G E D G
And make sure you tell Daddy that I'm still his little girl
E D G
Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be
E A D
Don't forget to remember me

Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray
E
I haven't done this in a while
E
So I don't know what to say but
D E G D E
Lord I feel so small some times in this big ol' place
E D G
I know there are more important things, but
E A D
Don't forget to remember me
