[Verse]
D# D#maj7 G#
City girls just seem to find out early,
Fm A#7
how to open doors with just a smile.
D# D#maj7 G#
F rich old man and she won't have to worry;
Fm G# D#
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
D# D#maj7 G#
Late at night a big old house gets lonely;
Fm A#7
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
D# D#maj7 G#
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Fm G# D# G# A#
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
D# D#maj7 G#
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
Fm A#7
To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
D# D#maj7 G#
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin';
Fm G# D# G# D#
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town.
[Chorus]
D# G# D# G# D# Cm Gm Fm A#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi - ile is a thin disguise.
D# C#/D# G# F7 Fm A# D#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.

[Verse]
D# D#maj7 G#
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
Fm A#7
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
D# D#maj7 G#
She drives on through the night, antici-pating
Fm G# D# G# A#
Cos he makes her feel the way she used to feel
D# D#maj7 G#
She rushes to his arms, they fall to-gether
Fm A#7
She whispers that it's only for a while
D# D#maj7 G#
She swears that soon she'll be coming back for-ever
Fm G# D#
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
[Chorus]
D# G# D# G# D# Cm Gm Fm A#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i-ile is a thin disguise.
D# C#/D# G# F7 Fm A# D#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
[Interlude]
(D#) Gmaj7 G# Fm A#7 D#
[Verse]
D# D#maj7 G#
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
Fm A#7
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
D# D#maj7 G#
Another night, it's gonna be a long one;
Fm G# D# G# A#
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
D# D#maj7 G#
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
Fm A#7
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
D# D#maj7 G#
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy
Fm G# D# G# A#
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
D# D#maj7 G#
My, oh my, you sure know how to ar-range things;
Fm A#7
You set it up so well, so careful-ly.
D# D#maj7 G#
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things;
Fm G# D# G# D#
You're still the same old girl you used to be.
[Chorus]
D# G# D# G# D# Cm Gm Fm A#
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i- ile is a thin dis-guise.
D# C#/D# G# F7 Fm A# D#
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
D#maj7 Fm A# D#
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
D#maj7 Fm A# D#
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes.
