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 
The lord took her away, he must?ve known we needed her 
                                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 
 
 
 
Not sure about the words in the last verse after ?rock of ages???? 
 
Please let me know if anyone knows what they are!
