G Gmaj7 C  Am D G
 
G               Gmaj7            C
City girls just seem to find out early
Am                            D
How to open doors with just a smile
  G                Gmaj7             C
A rich old man and she won't have to worry
       Am              C              G
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
 
G               Gmaj7              C
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
  Am                                  D
I guess every form of refuge has it's price
G                          Gmaj7             C
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Am                  C                G   (C D)
given to a man with hands as cold as ice
 
       G                  Gmaj7          C
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
   Am                                 D
To comfort an old friend who's feelin down
    G                    Gmaj7         C
But he knows where she's goin as she's leaving
       Am             C                G
She is headed for the cheating side of town
 
          G   C           G
You can't hide your lying eyes
         Em    Bm           Am  D
And your smile is a thin disguise
             G G7         C  A
I thought by now you'd realize
      Am              D               G
There ain't no way to hide your lying eyes
 
G Gmaj7 C  Am D G
 
G                    Gmaj7         C
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
     Am                                 D
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
    G                     Gmaj7       C
She drives on through the night anticipating
         Am                 C               G
cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
 
    G             Gmaj7             C
She rushes to his arms, they fall together
    Am                           D
She whispers that it's only for awhile
    G                          Gmaj7         C
She swears that soon she'll be comin back forever
    Am             C                 G
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
 
          G   C           G
You can't hide your lying eyes
         Em    Bm           Am  D
And your smile is a thin disguise
             G G7         C  A
I thought by now you'd realize
      Am              D               G
There ain't no way to hide your lying eyes
 
G Gmaj7 C  Am D G
 
    G                    Gmaj7  C
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
    Am                                D
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
 G                  Gmaj7      C
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
    Am                  C                 G  (C D)
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
 
    G              Gmaj7         C
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
    Am                             D
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
G                    Gmaj7            C
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy? 
      Am              C                 G
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
 
G              Gmaj7              C
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
    Am                           D
You set it up so well, so carefully
G                       Gmaj7           C
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
       Am                 C                G
You're still the same old girl you used to be
 
          G   C           G
You can't hide your lying eyes
         Em    Bm           Am  D
And your smile is a thin disguise
             G G7         C  A
I thought by now you'd realize
      Am              D               G
There ain't no way to hide your lying eyes
      Am              D               G
There ain't no way to hide your lying eyes
Am               D               G
Honey, you can't hide your lying eyes
