G5               G5            C5
City girls just seem to find out early
A5                            D5
How to open doors with just a smile
  G5                G5             C5
A rich old man and she won t have to worry
       A5              C5              G5
She ll dress up all in lace and go in style

G5               G5              C5
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
  A5                                 D5
I guess every form of refuge has its price
G5                          G5             C5
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
A5                  C5                G5
given to a man with hands as cold as ice

       G5                  G5          C5
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
   A5                                 D5
To comfort an old friend whose feeling down
    G5                    G5         C5
But he knows where she s going as she s leaving
       A5             C5                G5
She is headed for the cheating side of town

          G5   C5           G5
You can t hide your lying eyes
         E5    B5           A5  D5
And your smile is a thin disguise
             G5 G5         C5  A5
I thought by now you d realize
      A5              D5               G5
There ain t no way to hide your lying eyes

On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that its only for awhile
She swears that soon shell be coming back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

You can t hide your lying eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you d realize
There ain t now way to hide you lying eyes

She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, its gonna be a long one

She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy? 
She s so far gone she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain t it funny how your new life didn t change things
You re still the same old girl you used to be

          G5   C5           G5
You can t hide your lying eyes
         E5    B5           A5  D5
And your smile is a thin disguise
             G5 G5         C5  A5
I thought by now you d realize
      A5              D5               G5
There ain t no way to hide your lying eyes
       A5       D5                G5
Honey, you can t hide your lying eyes
