 G                 Bm
Met a girl in the parking lot
D                  A       F#m G
And all I did was say hello
                          Bm
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
Em         G        A
For me to walk her home
       G               Bm      A
But I guess that’s the way it goes

Chorus:
D                     A
Tell me again was it love at first sight
     Em                   G
When I walked by and you caught my eye
D                            A
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
       G      Bm               G           A
Well smile because you’re the deer in the headlights

Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast, he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By a black eye and bloody nose
But I guess that's the way it goes

Chorus

Bm         A
It’s suffocating to say
         Em                        G
But the female mystique takes my breath away
    D                  A
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
             G               A
‘Cause I’m trying to guess here

Chorus:
Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
I'm sorry I ever tried (deer in the headlights)

Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
If life was a game, you would never play nice
If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes
Put your sunglasses on 'cause you're a deer
in the headlights

You're the deer in the headlights
You're the deer in the headlights
