At the start of the chorus, for one beat of the second G chord, the note C is added at the first fret of the

B string, making the chord a Gsus4. It's hard to explain but if you listen to the song it's easy to pick up.

The G chords at the end of the verses carry on into the start of the next verse. However at the end the

verses before the chorus there is a 1 bar pause in the music, again it'll be easier to work out by listening

to the song :)

Standard tuning.

City girls just

seem to find out

early

How to open doors with just a

smile

rich old man and

she won't have to

worry

She'll

dress up all in

lace and go in

style

Late at night a

big old house gets

lonely

I guess

every form of refuge has its

price

And it

breaks her heart to

think her love is

only

Given

to a man with

hands as cold as

ice

So she tells him she must

go out for the

evening

comfort an old friend who's feelin'

down

But

he knows where she's

goin' as she's

leavin'

She is

headed for the

cheatin' side of

town

You can't

hide______

__ your lyin'

eyes

And your

smile______

__ is a thin dis

guise

I thought by

now______

__ you'd real

ize______

There

ain't no way to

hide your lyin

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

night antici

pating

'Cause he

makes her feel the

way she used to

feel

She rushes to his

arms; they fall to

gether

She

whispers that it's only for a

while

She

swears that soon she'll be

comin' back for

ever

She

pulls away and

leaves him with a

smile

You can't

hide______

__ your lyin'

eyes

And your

smile______

__ is a thin dis

guise

I thought by

now______

__ you'd real

ize______

There

ain't no way to

hide your lyin

eyes

She gets up and

pours herself a

strong one,

And

stares out at the stars up in the

sky

nother night, it's

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 ar

range things

You

set it up so well, so careful

Ain't it

funny how your

new life didn't

change things?

You're

still the same

old girl you used to

You can't

hide______

__ your lyin'

eyes

And your

smile______

__ is a thin dis

guise

I thought by

now______

__ you'd real

ize______

There

ain't no way to

hide your lyin

eyes

There

ain't no way to

hide your lyin'

eyes

Honey, you can't

hide your lyin'

eyes

Not 100% sure on the last few chords, any corrections are welcome :)
