intro :
D
D G A Bm D x6

verse 1 :
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
Em Bm A
but i guess thats 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
didnt you know love could shine this bright
G Bm G A
well smile because youre the deer in the headlights

interlude : D G A Bm D x4

verse 2 :
G Bm
met a girl with a graceful charm
D A F#m G
but when beauty met the beast , he froze
Bm
got the sense i was not her type
Em G A
by black eye and bloody nose
Em Bm A
but i guess thats the way it goes

chorus

bridge :
Bm A
its suffocating to say
Bm G
but the female mystique takes my breath away
D A
so give me a smile or give me a sneer
G A
cause im trying to guess here

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
didnt you know love could shine this bright
Em A
im sorry i ever tried ( deer in the headlights )

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
didnt you know love could shine this bright

if love was a game , you would never play nice
G Bm G A
if love was a beam , youd be blind in both eyes

hey dudes and dudettes! this song came out yesterday and i thought it was super sick
( awesome ) ! it took a while and i had to listen super carefully to every part ( sometimes
every chord ) separately! some of it is probably wrong but it won’t sound bad . i did my
best , and that’s what counts . . . to some people! i can’t wait for this album to come out! it’s
gonna be their best stuff ever! thanks!

ps . for the ending , just listen to it . i know i wasn’t very clear . but that’s the best
way to explain it!
