Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “The Starting Line” dari Keane.

C                       Em
This town was a lovers stage
         G                           C
but now you can't recognise
C                                    Em                    G
the streetlights that are daggers to your eyes
Dm                        Am
You can't find your bearings
            F                          C
you're slipping into the ground
F                             Am                   Em G
The scene has no colour and no sound.

C             Em
You still believe in me
G                               C
after the things I've done
C                   Em                    G
You fear for what we have become
Dm                     Am
The ground is uneven
           F                           C
you stumble from day to day
F                             Am
You tread where its easy
                       Em
although your feet are like lead
                G                         F
and you gotta get underway

Chorus:
F                  C                      Em     Am
Drag your heart up to the starting line
F                   C                             G
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
F           C               Em     Am
Its too easy to get left behind
Dm
I know you've been kicked around
       F                                                                     C Em G C
but tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.

Each heart is a paper kite
Blown around by the breeze
Love won't rest 'til it brings you to your knees
Some find it easy
Some will never even know
You think you've done your journey
Then you stumble and find
That there's such a long way to go

Chorus:
Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
It's too easy to get left behind
I know you've been kicked around
You wanna be lost and not be found
Let's take the back way into town
And drink to the bad times
Lay them down on me

Girl, I still believe in you
You're too good to fall so low
We're gonna find a better life, I know
Things will be clearer
And soon as we make a start
We'll be that much nearer
We're too old to just stand here
Waiting to break apart

Chorus:
Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
It's too easy to get left behind
I know you've been kicked around
But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me
On me, on me On me...
