18 years have come and gone  
 
         E          
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  
 
    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  
 
            D 
In case you run short on cash  
 
              G 
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  
        D                                    A 
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  
 
 
G                                         D 
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
