how to open doors with just a smile.

You can't hide your lyin' eyes

she whispers that it's only for awhile. 
    G                                         C 
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever,

G                               C 
She gets up and pours herself a strong one 
    D                                 G 
and stares out at the stars up in the sky.

Another night, it's gonna be a long one,

Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things,

you're still the same old girl you used to be.
