        G
I had another drink after another drink 
                                  D7
and then I tried to crawl to the door

I had another smoke after another joke 
                              G
and then I couldn't take any more

It didn't change a thing, not any single thing
                                   C
when someone tried to tell me for sure
          G                         D
I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream
           G                D
I read a word or two about everything
          G                    D
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
      C         D     G
They never told me a thing about it
    C         D      G
I never did know a thing about it



         C
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes 
           G
they won't go away
         C
And the times that I tried are the times that 
                   G
I find they don't show today
     F           C   F   G    C  F G
But you make me feel so good



I woke up after four, still lying on the floor, 
and waiting to be carried away
I woke up once again, a little after ten, 
will things be any better today
It doesn't change you see, it only changes me, 
well someone tried to tell me I'm sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it



And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that 
I find they don't show today
But you make me feel so good



I'm going back to school, I'm gonna check the rule, 
and see if I get carried away
I'm going back again, I'm gonna try again, 
don't listen what the people might say
It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing, 
well someone tried to tell me for sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it



         C
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes 
           G
they won't go away
         C
And the times that I tried are the times that 
                   G
I find they don't show today
     F           C      G F C
But you make me feel so good




I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it



And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that 
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that 
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that 
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes, 
they won't go away
