v.1
^GCity girls just seem to find out ^Cearly
^AmHow to open ^Cdoors with just a ^Dsmile
^GA rich old man, an' she won't have to ^Cworry
She'll ^Amdress up all in ^Clace an' go in ^Gstyle

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
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town

Chorus:
You can't ^Ghide^C your lyin' ^Geyes^C-G
And your ^Emsmile^Bm is a thin dis^Amguise^D
I thought by ^Gnow you'd rea^Clize^Am
AmThere ain't no way to ^Chide your lyin' ^Geyes

v.3
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, anticipating
Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel

She rushes to his arms, they fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

v.3
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry

She wondered 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 arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be

Rep. Ch.
