[Verse]
F# F#maj7 B
City girls just seem to find out early,
G#m C#7
how to open doors with just a smile.
F# F#maj7 B
G# rich old man and she won't have to worry;
G#m B F#
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
F# F#maj7 B
Late at night a big old house gets lonely;
G#m C#7
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
F# F#maj7 B
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
G#m B F# B C#
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
F# F#maj7 B
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
G#m C#7
To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
F# F#maj7 B
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin';
G#m B F# B F#
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town.
[Chorus]
F# B F# B F# D#m A#m G#m C#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi - ile is a thin disguise.
F# E/F# B G#7 G#m C# F#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.

[Verse]
F# F#maj7 B
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
G#m C#7
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
F# F#maj7 B
She drives on through the night, antici-pating
G#m B F# B C#
Cos he makes her feel the way she used to feel
F# F#maj7 B
She rushes to his arms, they fall to-gether
G#m C#7
She whispers that it's only for a while
F# F#maj7 B
She swears that soon she'll be coming back for-ever
G#m B F#
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
[Chorus]
F# B F# B F# D#m A#m G#m C#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i-ile is a thin disguise.
F# E/F# B G#7 G#m C# F#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
[Interlude]
(F#) Gmaj7 B G#m C#7 F#
[Verse]
F# F#maj7 B
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
G#m C#7
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
F# F#maj7 B
Another night, it's gonna be a long one;
G#m B F# B C#
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
F# F#maj7 B
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
G#m C#7
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
F# F#maj7 B
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy
G#m B F# B C#
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
F# F#maj7 B
My, oh my, you sure know how to ar-range things;
G#m C#7
You set it up so well, so careful-ly.
F# F#maj7 B
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things;
G#m B F# B F#
You're still the same old girl you used to be.
[Chorus]
F# B F# B F# D#m A#m G#m C#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i- ile is a thin dis-guise.
F# E/F# B G#7 G#m C# F#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
F#maj7 G#m C# F#
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
F#maj7 G#m C# F#
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes.
