INTRO: [E] [Emaj7] [A] [F#m] [B7] [E]
VERSE 1:
[E] City girls just
[Emaj7] seem to find out
[A] early,
[F#m] how to open doors with just a
[B] smile
A
[E] rich old man and
[Emaj7] she won't have to
[A] worry
She'll
[F#m] dress up all in
[A] lace and go in
[E] style
VERSE 2:
[E] Late at night, a
[Emaj7] big old house gets
[A] lonely,
I guess
[F#m] every form of refuge has its
[B] price
And it
[E] breaks her heart to
[Emaj7] think her love is
[A] only
Given
[F#m] to a man with
[A] hands as cold as
[E] ice
[F#m7] [B7]
VERSE 3:
So she
[E] tells him she must
[Emaj7] go out for the
[A] evening
To
[F#m] comfort an old friend who's feeling
[B] down
But he
[E] knows where she's
[Emaj7] goin' as she's
[A] leavin'.
She's
[F#m] headed for the
[A] cheatin' side of
[E] town
[B7] [E open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[E] hide
[A/E] your lyin'
[E] eyes ^
[A/E] [E]
And your
[C#m] smile
[G#m] is a thin dis-
[F#m]-guise
[B7]
I thought by
[E] now
[D] you'd real-
[A]-ize
[F#7]
There
[F#m] ain't no way to
[B] hide those lying
[E] eyes.
[Emaj7] [A] [F#m] [B7] [E]
VERSE 4:
On the
[E] other side of
[Emaj7] town a boy is
[A] waiting
with
[F#m] firey eyes and dreams no one could
[B] steal
She
[E] drives on through the
[Emaj7] night antici-
[A]-pating
Cause he
[F#m] makes her feel the
[A] way she used to
[E] feel
[A] [B7]
VERSE 5:
She
[E] rushes to his
[Emaj7] arms they fall to-
[A]-gether
She
[F#m] whispers that its only for a
[B7] while
She
[E] says that soon she'll be
[Emaj7] coming back for-
[A]-ever
She
[F#m] pulls away and
[A] leaves him with a
[E] smile
[B7] [E open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[E] hide
[A/E] your lyin'
[E] eyes ^
[A/E] [E]
And your
[C#m] smile
[G#m] is a thin dis-
[F#m]-guise
[B7]
I thought by
[E] now
[D] you'd real-
[A]-ize
[F#7]
There
[F#m] ain't no way to
[B] hide those lying
[E] eyes.
[Emaj7] [A] [F#m] [B7] [E]
VERSE 6:
[E] She gets up and
[Emaj7] pours herself a
[A] strong one
And
[F#m] stares out at the stars up in the
[B7] sky
An-
[E]-other night, it's
[Emaj7] gonna be a
[A] long one.
She
[F#m] draws the shade and
[A] hangs her head to
[E] cry
[F#m7] [B7]
VERSE 7:
She
[E] wonders how it
[Emaj7] ever got this
[A] crazy.
She
[F#m] thinks about a boy she knew in
[B7] school
Did
[E] she get tired or
[Emaj7] did she just get
[A] lazy?
She's
[F#m] so far gone, she
[A] feels just like a
[E] fool
VERSE 8:
[E] My, oh my, you
[Emaj7] sure know how to ar-
[A]-range things.
You
[F#m] set it up so well, so careful-
[B7]-ly
Ain't it
[E] funny how your
[Emaj7] new life didn't
[A] change things.
You're
[F#m] still the same old
[A] girl you used to
[E] be
[B7] [E open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[E] hide
[A/E] your lyin'
[E] eyes ^
[A/E] [E]
And your
[C#m] smile
[G#m] is a thin dis-
[F#m]-guise
[B7]
I thought by
[E] now
[D] you'd real-
[A]-ize
[F#7]
There
[F#m] ain't no way to
[B] hide those lying
[E] eyes
[Emaj7]
There
[F#m] ain't no way to
[B] hide those lying
[E] eyes
[Emaj7]
[F#m] Honey you cant
[B] hide your lyin
[E] eyes
[Emaj7] [F#m] [B] [E open]
