What A Memory
G
On the day momma died she called daddy to her side
C D
And said I?ll be goin? soon, I know it?s gonna hurt you both
C D
But promise me before I go you?ll do what I ask of you
G
In a big red folgers can hid behind the pots and pans
C
You?ll find some money that I?ve saved
D
And in the back of my dresser drawer
G C D
I put away a little more for a rainy day
Em C
Go to town and buy that new guitar
Em C
Cause he?s been workin? awful hard
G C D C D
To get his own, to write his songs?
G Em C
Oh what a memory, oh what a memory
Am C
And even in her final moments momma thought of me
G C D C D
What a memory
G
She was only thirty-five, I was fifteen askin? why

C D
She was an angel here on earth, I still miss her everyday
G
With all her friends and half the town
And her family gathered round
C
I bet she never felt so loved
D
When everybody?s heads were bowed
G C D
I did my best to make her proud, as I stood up
Em C
And I sang rock of ages clear from me
Em C
As I played it on that new six string
G C D C D
I couldn?t help but cry, as we said goodbye
(repeat chorus)
Am
Even in her final moments
C
Momma thought of me
G C
What a memory
G
What a memory
