G                   Gmaj7                C  
City girls just seem to find out early  
Am                                         D  
How to open doors with just a smile  
   G                          Gmaj7                 C  
A rich old man, and she wont' have to worry;  
          Am                C              G  
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style  
        G  C                G  
You can't hide your lyin' eyes  
               Em Bm                Am D  
And your smile is a thin disguise  
                    G G7              C A  
I thought by now you'd realize  
          Am                  D                    G  
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes  

G                     Gmaj7                   C  
Late at night a big old house gets lonely  
            Am                                      D  
I guess every form of refuge has its price.  
          G                            Gmaj7               C  
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only  
          Am                C                        G  
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.  

           G                          Gmaj7             C  
So she tells him she must go out for the evening  
     Am                                                D  
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down  
      G                                Gmaj7           C  
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'  
          Am                  C                      G  
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town  
        G  C                G  
You can't hide your lyin' eyes  
               Em Bm                Am D  
And your smile is a thin disguise  
                    G G7              C A  
I thought by now you'd realize  
          Am                  D                    G  
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes  


G                   Gmaj7                C  
Am                                         D  
   G                          Gmaj7                 C  
          Am                C              G  

G                       Gmaj7              C  
She gets up and pours herself a strong one  
       Am                                            D  
And stares out at the stars up in the sky  
G                          Gmaj7        C  
Another night, it's gonna be a long one  
       Am                          C                           G  
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry  

       G                     Gmaj7           C  
She wonders how it ever got this crazy  
       Am                                           D  
She thinks about a boy she knew in school  
      G                       Gmaj7              C  
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?  
        Am                    C                     G  
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool  

G                      Gmaj7                  C  
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things  
       Am                                     D  
You set it up so well, so carefully  
           G                       Gmaj7            C  
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things  
           Am                     C                       G  
You're still the same old girl you used to be  
        G  C                G  
You can't hide your lyin' eyes  
               Em Bm                Am D  
And your smile is a thin disguise  
                    G G7              C A  
I thought by now you'd realize  
          Am                  D                    G  
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes  
          Am                  D                    G  
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes  
Am                     D                     G  
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes
