Love starts with a toothbrush a Bic razor and a Dixie cup

a little splash of aftershave before you leave for that first date

I see stars in both your eyes after that long kiss goodnight

Forever starts with a suitcase sneaking out the window to get away
C C7 F
To the car parked by the curb gassed up for Gatlinburg

everything that's anything starts out as a little thing

Just needs a little time and room to grow

Step by step day by day
C Am
It all adds up along the way
Dm G
and the next thing that you know

Life starts with a little house a corner lot on the edge of town
C C7 F
a weed eater and a picket fence you think it's good as the getting gets
C G7
Then she wakes up feeling bad you both wonder what's up with that
F G C Am
Everything that's anything starts out as a little thing
Dm G C
Just needs a little time and room to grow

One night around eight o'clock you scrub him down then you dry him off

You pick him up and put his little feet on the stool by the bathroom sink

You grab the crest and the Dixie cup it all hits you as he opens up
