Key: G
Introduction:
G G7M C
City girls just seem to find out early,
Am D
how to open doors with just a smile.
G G7M C
A rich old man and she won't have to worry
Am C G
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
G G7M C
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
Am D
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
G G7M C
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Am C G
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
G C
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
Am D
To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
G G7M C
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
Am C G
She's headed for that cheatin' side of town.
(CHORUS)
G C G Em Bm Am D
You can't hide your lyin' eyes, and your smile is a thin disguise.
G G9 C A Am D G
I thought by now you'd realize there ain't no way to hide those lying eyes.
VERSE 2
G G7M C
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
Am D
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
G G7M C
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
Am C G
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
And she wonders how it ever got this crazy
G G7M C
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
Am D
You set it up so well, so carefully.
G G7M C
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
Am C G
You're still the same old girl you used to be.
(Chorus)
