Deer Caught in the Headlights

by The Wedding Present

Intro: Bottleneck slide up

Verse 1:

E MajorE                              BB C#C# x2
You won't give it a thought and that's neither wrong nor right,

E MajorE                        BB C#C# x2
and I'm the deer that's caught in your headlights.

E MajorE                      BB C#C# x2
How can it be that just one glance is enough,

E MajorE                    BB C#C# x2
to petrify me. How do you do that stuff?

CHORUS 1:

G#G#           BB    D MajorD             E MajorE
Because as soon as you look my way that's when I totally freeze,

G#G#     BB        D MajorD
and it's at moments like these that I can't think of a single thing to say except for,

G#G#             E MajorE
well maybe, you're just too pretty for me.

Verse 2:

E MajorE                               BB C#C# x2
You wear a stunning dress and then say 'What, this old thing?'.

E MajorE                   BB C#C# x2
Your genuineness is just so captivating.

CHORUS 2:

G#G#         BB   D MajorD             E MajorE
But as soon as you look my way that's when I totally freeze,

G#G#     BB        D MajorD
and it's at moments like these that I can't think of a single thing to say except for,

G#G#            E MajorE
well maybe you're just too pretty for me.

CHORUS 3:

C#C#       BB         A augmentedA         G#G#
And if I was a painter, I'd just paint portraits of you.

C#C#     D MajorD      A augmentedA
You'd be in everything I do.

Outro:
E MajorE A augmentedA

Last:

E, BB C#C# x 2
