In Replace command, match first word(s) of document only

I'm using Replace to find the first word(s) of each paragraph that are followed by a tab using this wildcard expression:

^13*^t

The ^13 finds the start of a new paragraph. I only want to replace the first words of a paragraph if they are followed by a tab, hence the ^t.

This works for everything except the first paragraph in the document, since it doesn't start with a ^13, apparently. Is there a way to match only the first word(s) followed by a tab?

I'm putting this into a Macro, so I'm open to using features that are only available in a Macro if necessary.
