Intro: G 

G              D 
Started out so simple 
Em            C            G 
Everything so innocent and plain 
G            D 
She was in a doorway 
   Em             C                G 
And I was walking nowhere down the main 
    D                 
She whispered something softly 
    C                G 
And stepped into the light 
D       
Can you help me out she said 
      C             G 
I'm a little lost tonight 
G       D         C               G 
One day love just hits you with a flash 
G             D               C         G 
Lights go off around you like some photograph 
G                 D 
She said her bags were stolen 
Em                C              G 
All they left her was the camera on her arm 
    G                   D 
She told me she was new in town 
Em       C             G 
Only two weeks off the farm 
    D         
Why did I believe her 
C              G 
Heaven only knows 
D   
She looked into my eyes  
       C           G 
And my resolution goes 
G       D         C               G 
One day love just hits you with a flash 
G          D               C         G 
Leaves you staring blindly like some photograph 
***Bridge: 
Em                    D 
Pictures of two fools laughing at the world 
C                         G 
Smiling as only good luck does 
Em                       D 
Truth is you're not even looking at me girl 
Am  
All the time I was falling 
C 
You kept on stalling 
Am                         D  
Sizing up how big a fool I was 
*** 
G              D 
Woke up in the morning  
Em            C            G 
I don't think that I had been asleep too long 
G            D 
The room was dark and empty 
  Em             C                  G 
I could see that all my clothes and money were gone 
     D                 
I've run out of excuses  
    C            G 
And people I can blame 
D       
If she ever asked me too 
       C      G 
I'd do it all again 
G       D         C               G 
One day love just hits you with a flash 
G          D               C         G 
Leaves you staring blindly like some photograph
