G Gmaj7 Am D
Momma moved out, daddy sold the house
G Gmaj7 Am D
They split up the money and went on their way
G Gmaj7 D
And all the king's horses and (Amall the king's men
G D G D
Couldn't put mommy and daddy back to- gather again
[Chorus]
G Gmaj7 Am D
Starting over a- gain, where should they begin
G Gmaj7 Am D
'Cause they've never been out on their own
G Gmaj7 Am D
Starting over a- gain, where do you begin
G Gmaj7 Am D
When your dreams are all shattered and the kids are all grown
G Gmaj7 Am D
Got an a- partment, she moved in with her sisters
G Gmaj7 Am D
He's scheming big deals with one of his friends
G G/B C G/B
While she sits at home, just sorting out pieces
G Gmaj7 D
Of left over memories from thirty odd years
[Chorus]
G Gmaj7 Am D
Starting over a- gain, where do you begin
G Gmaj7 Am D
You've never been out on your own
G Gmaj7 Am C D
Starting over a- gain, never any end
D
What will the neighbors say?
D#m
They're talking talk, its small town news
Em D C D
Facing fifty years old, making up a happy home
Em D C Edim
And this far down the road, you find yourself alone
D
Two fools ---
[Chorus]
G Gmaj7 Am D
Starting over a- gain, where do you begin
G Gmaj7 Am D
When you've never been out on your own
G Gmaj7 Am D
Starting over a- gain, never any end
G Gmaj7 Am D
When your dreams are all shattered and the kids are all grown ---

G Gmaj7 Am D
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
G Gmaj7 Am Bm
Could never put mommy and daddy back together

Back to- gather, --- again -----
