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

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