"Forever's Gotta Start Somewhere" is a song recorded by Canadian country music artist Chad Brownlee. It was the second single off his fourth studio album Back in the Game.[1] The song was co-written by Cary Barlowe, Donovan Woods, and Todd Clark.[2] It became Brownlee’s first #1 hit on the Billboard Canada Country chart.[3]

Brownlee stated "Forever’s Gotta Start Somewhere is about that bold first move in introducing yourself to someone new. For many this is a nerve racking experience, but in order for any relationship to happen there must first be a beginning. This is that initial step into what could potentially be a lifelong love. For me, these past few months have been a time of heavy goodbye’s, but I know all endings are necessary in order to usher in new beginnings. This song is about taking a chance and not looking back. Right now, that is the very credence of this next chapter in my life."[4]
