Deer Caught in the Headlights 

by The Wedding Present


Intro: Bottleneck slide up

Verse 1:

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

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

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

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


CHORUS 1:

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

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

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


Verse 2:

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

E                                      B C# x2 
Your genuineness is just so captivating.


CHORUS 2:

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

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

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


CHORUS 3:

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

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