Key: :[A] (w: Don Henley, Glenn Frey)
INTRO: [A] [Amaj7] [D] [Bm] [E7] [A]
VERSE 1:
[A] City girls just
[Amaj7] seem to find out
[D] early,
[Bm] how to open doors with just a
[E] smile
A
[A] rich old man and
[Amaj7] she won't have to
[D] worry
She'll
[Bm] dress up all in
[D] lace and go in
[A] style
VERSE 2:
[A] Late at night, a
[Amaj7] big old house gets
[D] lonely,
I guess
[Bm] every form of refuge has its
[E] price
And it
[A] breaks her heart to
[Amaj7] think her love is
[D] only
Given
[Bm] to a man with
[D] hands as cold as
[A] ice
[Bm7] [E7]
VERSE 3:
So she
[A] tells him she must
[Amaj7] go out for the
[D] evening
To
[Bm] comfort an old friend who's feeling
[E] down
But he
[A] knows where she's
[Amaj7] goin' as she's
[D] leavin'.
She's
[Bm] headed for the
[D] cheatin' side of
[A] town
[E7] [A open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[A] hide
[D/A] your lyin'
[A] eyes ^
[D/A] [A]
And your
[F#m] smile
[C#m] is a thin dis-
[Bm]-guise
[E7]
I thought by
[A] now
[G] you'd real-
[D]-ize
[B7]
There
[Bm] ain't no way to
[E] hide those lying
[A] eyes.
[Amaj7] [D] [Bm] [E7] [A]
VERSE 4:
On the
[A] other side of
[Amaj7] town a boy is
[D] waiting
with
[Bm] firey eyes and dreams no one could
[E] steal
She
[A] drives on through the
[Amaj7] night antici-
[D]-pating
Cause he
[Bm] makes her feel the
[D] way she used to
[A] feel
[D] [E7]
VERSE 5:
She
[A] rushes to his
[Amaj7] arms they fall to-
[D]-gether
She
[Bm] whispers that its only for a
[E7] while
She
[A] says that soon she'll be
[Amaj7] coming back for-
[D]-ever
She
[Bm] pulls away and
[D] leaves him with a
[A] smile
[E7] [A open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[A] hide
[D/A] your lyin'
[A] eyes ^
[D/A] [A]
And your
[F#m] smile
[C#m] is a thin dis-
[Bm]-guise
[E7]
I thought by
[A] now
[G] you'd real-
[D]-ize
[B7]
There
[Bm] ain't no way to
[E] hide those lying
[A] eyes.
[Amaj7] [D] [Bm] [E7] [A]
VERSE 6:
[A] She gets up and
[Amaj7] pours herself a
[D] strong one
And
[Bm] stares out at the stars up in the
[E7] sky
An-
[A]-other night, it's
[Amaj7] gonna be a
[D] long one.
She
[Bm] draws the shade and
[D] hangs her head to
[A] cry
[Bm7] [E7]
VERSE 7:
She
[A] wonders how it
[Amaj7] ever got this
[D] crazy.
She
[Bm] thinks about a boy she knew in
[E7] school
Did
[A] she get tired or
[Amaj7] did she just get
[D] lazy?
She's
[Bm] so far gone, she
[D] feels just like a
[A] fool
VERSE 8:
[A] My, oh my, you
[Amaj7] sure know how to ar-
[D]-range things.
You
[Bm] set it up so well, so careful-
[E7]-ly
Ain't it
[A] funny how your
[Amaj7] new life didn't
[D] change things.
You're
[Bm] still the same old
[D] girl you used to
[A] be
[E7] [A open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[A] hide
[D/A] your lyin'
[A] eyes ^
[D/A] [A]
And your
[F#m] smile
[C#m] is a thin dis-
[Bm]-guise
[E7]
I thought by
[A] now
[G] you'd real-
[D]-ize
[B7]
There
[Bm] ain't no way to
[E] hide those lying
[A] eyes
[Amaj7]
There
[Bm] ain't no way to
[E] hide those lying
[A] eyes
[Amaj7]
[Bm] Honey you cant
[E] hide your lyin
[A] eyes
[Amaj7] [Bm] [E] [A open]
