Lyrics

(G)Ci ty girls just (Gmaj7)seem to find out (C)ear ly

and (Am)how to op en doors with just a smile.

A (G)rich old man, and (Gmaj7)she won’t have to wor ry;

she’ll (Am)dress up all in lace and go in style.

Late at night a (Gmaj7)big old house gets lone ly;

I guess (Am)ev ’ry form of re fuge has its price.

And it (G)breaks her heart to (Gmaj7)think her love is on ly

gi ven (Am)to a man with hands as cold as ice.

So she (G)tells him she must (Gmaj7)go out for the eve ning

to (Am)com fort and old friend who’s feel in’ down.

But (G)he knows where she’s go in’ as she’s (C)leav in’;

she is (Am)head ed for the (C)cheat in’ side of town.

You can’t (G)hide

your ly in’ eyes,

and your (Em)smile

is a thin dis (Am)guise.

I thought by (G)now

you’d re a lize

there (Am)ain’t no way to hide your ly in’ eyes.

and

On oth er side of (Gmaj7)town a boy is wait ing

with (Am)fi ery eyes and dreams no one could steal.

She (G)drives on through the (Gmaj7)night an ti ci pat ing,

’cause he (Am)makes her feel the way she used to feel.

She (G)rush es to his (Gmaj7)arms, they fall to geth er;

she (Am)whis pers that it’s on ly for a while.

She (G)swears that soon she’ll be back for (C)ev er;

she (Am)pulls a way and (C)leaves him with a smile.

You can’t (G)hide

your ly in’ eyes,

and your (Em)smile

is a thin dis (Am)guise.

I thought by (G)now

you’d re a lize

there (Am)ain’t no way to hide your ly in’ eyes.

There (Am)ain’t no way to hide your ly in’ eyes.

(Am)Ho ney, you can’t (D)hide your ly in’ eyes.

About “Lyin' Eyes”

Can I sing "Lyin' Eyes" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?
Yes — Karaoke mode puts the lyrics of "Lyin' Eyes" on screen a line at a time and lights up each word in time, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word and the chord shown just above. The piano backing plays underneath in G, and you can transpose it to fit your voice.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Lyin' Eyes" by Eagles in?
The backing track is in G at 140 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Lyin' Eyes" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Lyin' Eyes"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Lyin' Eyes", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Lyin' Eyes" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "Lyin' Eyes" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in G, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Lyin' Eyes" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
