Met a girl in the parking lot

Her pepper spray made it rather hard

For me to walk her home
Em G/D A
But I guess that's the way it goes
Chorus:

Tell me again was it love at first sight

Didn't you know love could shine this bright

Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights

Met a girl with a graceful charm

Got the sense I was not her type

By black eye and bloody nose

But I guess that's the way it goes

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye
