Eagles, Lyin' Eyes (1975)
Key: :[Ab] (w: Don Henley, Glenn Frey)
INTRO: [Ab] [Abmaj7] [Db] [Bbm] [Eb7] [Ab]
VERSE 1:
[Ab] City girls just
[Abmaj7] seem to find out
[Db] early,
[Bbm] how to open doors with just a
[Eb] smile
A
[Ab] rich old man and
[Abmaj7] she won't have to
[Db] worry
She'll
[Bbm] dress up all in
[Db] lace and go in
[Ab] style
VERSE 2:
[Ab] Late at night, a
[Abmaj7] big old house gets
[Db] lonely,
I guess
[Bbm] every form of refuge has its
[Eb] price
And it
[Ab] breaks her heart to
[Abmaj7] think her love is
[Db] only
Given
[Bbm] to a man with
[Db] hands as cold as
[Ab] ice
[Bbm7] [Eb7]
VERSE 3:
So she
[Ab] tells him she must
[Abmaj7] go out for the
[Db] evening
To
[Bbm] comfort an old friend who's feeling
[Eb] down
But he
[Ab] knows where she's
[Abmaj7] goin' as she's
[Db] leavin'.
She's
[Bbm] headed for the
[Db] cheatin' side of
[Ab] town
[Eb7] [Ab open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[Ab] hide
[Db/Ab] your lyin'
[Ab] eyes ^
[Db/Ab] [Ab]
And your
[Fm] smile
[Cm] is a thin dis-
[Bbm]-guise
[Eb7]
I thought by
[Ab] now
[Gb] you'd real-
[Db]-ize
[Bb7]
There
[Bbm] ain't no way to
[Eb] hide those lying
[Ab] eyes.
[Abmaj7] [Db] [Bbm] [Eb7] [Ab]
VERSE 4:
On the
[Ab] other side of
[Abmaj7] town a boy is
[Db] waiting
with
[Bbm] firey eyes and dreams no one could
[Eb] steal
She
[Ab] drives on through the
[Abmaj7] night antici-
[Db]-pating
Cause he
[Bbm] makes her feel the
[Db] way she used to
[Ab] feel
[Db] [Eb7]
VERSE 5:
She
[Ab] rushes to his
[Abmaj7] arms they fall to-
[Db]-gether
She
[Bbm] whispers that its only for a
[Eb7] while
She
[Ab] says that soon she'll be
[Abmaj7] coming back for-
[Db]-ever
She
[Bbm] pulls away and
[Db] leaves him with a
[Ab] smile
[Eb7] [Ab open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[Ab] hide
[Db/Ab] your lyin'
[Ab] eyes ^
[Db/Ab] [Ab]
And your
[Fm] smile
[Cm] is a thin dis-
[Bbm]-guise
[Eb7]
I thought by
[Ab] now
[Gb] you'd real-
[Db]-ize
[Bb7]
There
[Bbm] ain't no way to
[Eb] hide those lying
[Ab] eyes.
[Abmaj7] [Db] [Bbm] [Eb7] [Ab]
VERSE 6:
[Ab] She gets up and
[Abmaj7] pours herself a
[Db] strong one
And
[Bbm] stares out at the stars up in the
[Eb7] sky
An-
[Ab]-other night, it's
[Abmaj7] gonna be a
[Db] long one.
She
[Bbm] draws the shade and
[Db] hangs her head to
[Ab] cry
[Bbm7] [Eb7]
VERSE 7:
She
[Ab] wonders how it
[Abmaj7] ever got this
[Db] crazy.
She
[Bbm] thinks about a boy she knew in
[Eb7] school
Did
[Ab] she get tired or
[Abmaj7] did she just get
[Db] lazy?
She's
[Bbm] so far gone, she
[Db] feels just like a
[Ab] fool
VERSE 8:
[Ab] My, oh my, you
[Abmaj7] sure know how to ar-
[Db]-range things.
You
[Bbm] set it up so well, so careful-
[Eb7]-ly
Ain't it
[Ab] funny how your
[Abmaj7] new life didn't
[Db] change things.
You're
[Bbm] still the same old
[Db] girl you used to
[Ab] be
[Eb7] [Ab open]
CHORUS:
You can't
[Ab] hide
[Db/Ab] your lyin'
[Ab] eyes ^
[Db/Ab] [Ab]
And your
[Fm] smile
[Cm] is a thin dis-
[Bbm]-guise
[Eb7]
I thought by
[Ab] now
[Gb] you'd real-
[Db]-ize
[Bb7]
There
[Bbm] ain't no way to
[Eb] hide those lying
[Ab] eyes
[Abmaj7]
There
[Bbm] ain't no way to
[Eb] hide those lying
[Ab] eyes
[Abmaj7]
[Bbm] Honey you cant
[Eb] hide your lyin
[Ab] eyes
[Abmaj7] [Bbm] [Eb] [Ab open]
