Tracy Lawrence – What A Memory (Guitar)

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

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

          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

Am
Even in her final moments

  C
Momma thought of me

      G       C
What a memory

             G
What a memory
