Intro.:  |(A) |(D) | x 2

(G)Momma moved (Gmaj7)out, daddy (Am)sold the (D)house
They (G)split up the (Gmaj7)money and (Am)went on their (D)way
And (G)all the king's (Gmaj7)horses and (Amall the king's (D)men
Couldn't put (G)mommy and (D) daddy back to-(G)gather again (D)

(Chorus)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)where should they begin (D)
'Cause they've (G)never been (Gmaj7)out on their own (Am) (D)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)where do you begin (D)
When your (G)dreams are all (Gmaj7)shattered and the (Am)kids are all (D)grown

Solo:  And the whole world (G)cries (D/F#)|(Am)(D)|

(G)Got an a-(Gmaj7)partment, she moved (Am)in with her (D)sisters
(G)He's scheming (Gmaj7)big deals with (Am)one of his (D)friends
While (G)she sits at (G/B)home, just (C)sorting out (G/B)pieces
Of (G)left over (Gmaj7)memories from (D)thirty odd years

(Chorus)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)where do you begin (D)
You've (G)never been (Gmaj7)out on your own (Am) (D)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)never any end (C) (D)

(D) What will the neighbors say?
They're talking talk, its small town news (D#m)
(Em) Facing (D)fifty years old, (C) making (D)up a happy home
(Em) And this (D)far down the road, (C) you find yourself alone (Edim)
Two fools (D) ---

(Chorus)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)where do you begin (D)
When you've (G)never been out (Gmaj7) on your own (Am) (D)
Starting (G)over a-(Gmaj7)gain, (Am)never any end (D)
When your (G)dreams are all (Gmaj7)shattered and the (Am)kids are all (D)grown ---

(Tag)
And (G)all the king's (Gmaj7)horses and (Am)all the king's men (D)
Could (G)never put mommy and (Gmaj7)daddy back together (Am) (Bm)
Back to-(C)gather, (D) --- again (G) -----
