[Verse]
E Emaj7 A
City girls just seem to find out early,
F#m B7
how to open doors with just a smile.
E Emaj7 A
F# rich old man and she won't have to worry;
F#m A E
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
E Emaj7 A
Late at night a big old house gets lonely;
F#m B7
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
E Emaj7 A
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
F#m A E A B
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
E Emaj7 A
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
F#m B7
To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
E Emaj7 A
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin';
F#m A E A E
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town.
[Chorus]
E A E A E C#m G#m F#m B
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi - ile is a thin disguise.
E D/E A F#7 F#m B E
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
[Interlude]

[Verse]
E Emaj7 A
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
F#m B7
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
E Emaj7 A
She drives on through the night, antici-pating
F#m A E A B
Cos he makes her feel the way she used to feel
E Emaj7 A
She rushes to his arms, they fall to-gether
F#m B7
She whispers that it's only for a while
E Emaj7 A
She swears that soon she'll be coming back for-ever
F#m A E
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
[Chorus]
E A E A E C#m G#m F#m B
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i-ile is a thin disguise.
E D/E A F#7 F#m B E
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.

(E) Gmaj7 A F#m B7 E
[Verse]
E Emaj7 A
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
F#m B7
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
E Emaj7 A
Another night, it's gonna be a long one;
F#m A E A B
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
E Emaj7 A
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
F#m B7
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
E Emaj7 A
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy
F#m A E A B
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
E Emaj7 A
My, oh my, you sure know how to ar-range things;
F#m B7
You set it up so well, so careful-ly.
E Emaj7 A
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things;
F#m A E A E
You're still the same old girl you used to be.
[Chorus]
E A E A E C#m G#m F#m B
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i- ile is a thin dis-guise.
E D/E A F#7 F#m B E
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
Emaj7 F#m B E
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Emaj7 F#m B E
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes.
