Verse: Em7   C9    G    D
If you had any idea what it was gonna take
Would you have gotten started in the first place
All these commitments you’ve made
They keep on adding up
Because you got addicted from the first taste

Em7   C9    G    D
Ooooh, nobody wonders
Nobody really cares
Ooooh, about your intentions
Until you gotten there

Chorus: 

C      G      D
Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
C      G      D
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
C                     G            D        C        Am
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what youve done
D        C        G        D
Isn’t that why you started in the first place, Started in the first place

If you had ever believed
That you were gonna break
Would you have gotten going in the first place
All these decisions it takes
To get you through the day
With no one even noticing your heart break

Ooooh, are you alone yes
Are you in trouble no
Ooooh, people’s opinions
They tend to come and go

C      G      D
Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
C      G      D
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
C                     G            D        C        Am
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what youve done
D        C        G        D
Isn’t that why you started in the first place, Started in the first place

How do you know
When you’re finally done
If you’ve got nothing to show
How do you know
When all the people you might trust
All forget to let you know

Ooooh

Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t the why you started in the first place
Started in the first place

Can you remember at the start
Can you remember trying your first shot
Can you remember wanting to be there
Can you remember wanting to be there
Do you know why you started in the first place
Do you know why you started in the first place
In the first place
Started in the first place

Started in the first place
