Verse 1 [G] City girls just [Gmaj7] seem to find out [C] early, [Am] How to open doors with just a [D] smile. A [G] rich old man and [Gmaj7] she won't have to [C] worry; She'll [Am] dress up all in [C] lace and go in [G] style. [G] Late at night a [Gmaj7] big old house gets [C] lonely; I [Am] guess every form of refuge has its [D] price. [G] And it breaks her heart to [Gmaj7] think her love is [C] only Given [Am] to a man with [C] hands as cold as [G] ice. So she [G] tells him she must [Gmaj7] go out for the [C] evening To [Am] comfort an old friend who's feeling [D] down. But [G] he knows where she's [Gmaj7] goin' as she's [C] leavin'; She's [Am] headed for that [C] cheatin' side of [G] town. Chorus You can't [G] hide [C] your lyin' [G] eyes, and your [Em] smile [Bm] is a thin dis-[Am]guise. [D] I thought by [G] now [G7] you'd real-[C]ize [A] there [Am] ain't no way to [D] hide those lying [G] eyes. Verse 2 On the other side of town a boy is waiting with stormy eyes and dreams no-one could steal She drives on throught the night anticipating Cos she makes him feel the way she used to feel She rushes to his arms they fall together She whispers that its only for a while She says that soon she'll be coming back forever She pulls away and leaves him with a smile Repeat Chorus Verse 3 She gets up and pours herself a strong one And stares out at the stars up in the sky. Another night, it's gonna be a long one; She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry. And she wonders how it ever got this crazy She thinks about a boy she knew in school Did she get tired or did she just get lazy She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things; You set it up so well, so carefully. Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things; You're still the same old girl you used to be. Repeat Chorus [A] There [Am] ain't no way to [D] hide those lyin' [G] eyes. [A] Honey [Am] you cant [D] hide your lyin' [G] eyes
