Intro
[Gmaj7] [C] [Cmaj7] [Am] [D] [Gmaj7]
Verse 1
City girls just [C]seem to find out early
[Am]How to open [D]doors with just a smile
[Gmaj7]A rich old man, and [C]she won't have to [Am]worry
She'll [D]dress [C]up all [Gmaj7]in lace go in style
Late at night a big [C]old house gets [Am]lonely
I guess every form [D7]of refuge has its price
And [Gmaj7]it breaks her heart [C]to think her love is only
[Am]Given to a [C]man with [Gmaj7]hands as [D]cold as [Gmaj7]ice
Verse 2
So she tells him she must [C]go out for the evening
To [Am]comfort an old [D]friend who's feelin' down
[Gmaj7]But he knows where she's [C]goin' as [Cmaj7]she's [D]leavin'
She is headed [C]for the [Gmaj7]cheatin' [D7]side of [G]town
Chorus
You can't [C/G]hide [G]your lyin' [Em]eyes
And your [Am]smile [Bm]is [D][Am]a thin [D]disguise
I [G]thought [F]by now [C]you'd [Amaj7]realize
There [D]ain't no way to hide [G]your lyin' [Gmaj7]eyes
Verse 3
On the other side of [C]town a boy is [Am]waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams [D]no one could [G/D]steal
She drives on [D]through [C]the night, anticipating
[Am]'Cause he makes [C]her feel [G]the way she used [F]to [Gmaj7]feel
Verse 4
She rushes to his arms, [C]they fall [Em][Am]together
She whispers, "It's [D]only for [Am7]a while"
[Gmaj7]She swears that soon [C]she'll be comin' back [Am]forever
She goes away [C]and leaves [G]him with a smile
Chorus
You can't [C/G]hide [G]your lyin' [Am7]eyes
And [Em]your [Bm]smile is [D][Am]a thin [D]disguise
I [G]thought [C/G]by now you'd [A]realize
There [D]ain't no way to hide [Gmaj7]your lyin' eyes
Verse 5
She gets up and pours [C]herself a strong one
And [Am]stares out [D]at the stars up in the sky
[Gmaj7]Another night, it's [C]gonna be a long one
[F#m7/A]She draws [C]the shade [Gmaj7]and hangs her [D]head to [Gmaj7]cry
Verse 6
She wonders how [C]it ever got this [Am]crazy
She thinks about a boy [D]she knew in [Gmaj7]school
Did she get tired or [C]did she just get [Am]lazy?
She's so [C]far gone, she [Gmaj7]feels just like a fool
Verse 7
My, oh my, you sure [C]know how to [Em]arrange [F#m7]things
[Am]You set it up so [D]well, so carefully
[Gmaj7]Ain't it funny how your new [C]life didn't change [Am]things?
You're [F#m7/E]still [C]the same old [G]girl you used to be
Chorus
You can't [C/G]hide [G]your lyin' [Em]eyes
And your [D]smile is a thin disguise
I [Gmaj7]thought [C]by now you'd [F#m/A][Am]realize
There ain't [D]no way to [Gmaj7]hide your lyin' [Am7]eyes
There ain't [D]no way to hide your [Gmaj7]lyin' eyes
