Is this the only account on the system or is there another admin account you 
could log in as?

If there is, log in as that account, open Terminal and do the following 

sudo passwd username

Where 'username' is the short username of the account in question.

This will change the login password, but it won't change the keychain password, 
but the old one might work for that.
