 E                                      
 When you're born it's a beautiful thing
 E                                
 They put a pacifier in your mouth
 E                                          
 You crawl around naked on the kitchen floor
 A                                   
 And your mom and daddy feel so proud
 
 Chorus:
 A                                        
 Everybody looks good at the starting line
             D                       E                       
 Get on your mark, get ready but you better keep this in mind
         A                                                 
 You can hit the ground running like you're shot from a gun
     D                         B7           
 But going the distance is the hard part son
      A          E                    A   
 Everybody looks good at the starting line
 
 You fall in love, you tie the knot
 You're on a permanent honeymoon
 But twenty years later when the thrill is gone
 Will she still be in love with you
 
 Chorus
 
 Solo
 
 
 Life is a race we've all got to run
 So stand up and toe the line
 I wish that I could say it was all down hill
 But there are mountains we've got to climb
 
 Chorus
 
 Chorus
 
 Sing it one more time
 Everybody looks good at the starting line
 Looks good, looks good
 At the starting line
