[Verse]
D Dmaj7 G
City girls just seem to find out early,
Em A7
how to open doors with just a smile.
D Dmaj7 G
E rich old man and she won't have to worry;
Em G D
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
D Dmaj7 G
Late at night a big old house gets lonely;
Em A7
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
D Dmaj7 G
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Em G D G A
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
D Dmaj7 G
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
Em A7
To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
D Dmaj7 G
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin';
Em G D G D
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town.
[Chorus]
D G D G D Bm F#m Em A
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi - ile is a thin disguise.
D C/D G E7 Em A D
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
[Interlude]

[Verse]
D Dmaj7 G
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
Em A7
with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
D Dmaj7 G
She drives on through the night, antici-pating
Em G D G A
Cos he makes her feel the way she used to feel
D Dmaj7 G
She rushes to his arms, they fall to-gether
Em A7
She whispers that it's only for a while
D Dmaj7 G
She swears that soon she'll be coming back for-ever
Em G D
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
[Chorus]
D G D G D Bm F#m Em A
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i-ile is a thin disguise.
D C/D G E7 Em A D
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.

[Verse]
D Dmaj7 G
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
Em A7
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
D Dmaj7 G
Another night, it's gonna be a long one;
Em G D G A
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
D Dmaj7 G
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
Em A7
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
D Dmaj7 G
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy
Em G D G A
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
D Dmaj7 G
My, oh my, you sure know how to ar-range things;
Em A7
You set it up so well, so careful-ly.
D Dmaj7 G
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things;
Em G D G D
You're still the same old girl you used to be.
[Chorus]
D G D G D Bm F#m Em A
You can't hi- ide your lyin' eyes, and your smi-i- ile is a thin dis-guise.
D C/D G E7 Em A D
I thought by no - ow you'd rea-li - ize there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
Dmaj7 Em A D
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Dmaj7 Em A D
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes.
