 I had another  drink after another drink
 and then I tried to crawl to the door
 I had another smoke after another joke
 and then I couldn't take any more
 It didn't change a thing, not any single thing
 when someone tried to tell me for sure
 I heard another  voice that said I wasn't  in a dream
 I read a word  or two about everything
 I never knew  the way that it oughta  have been
 They never  told me  a thing  about it
 I never  did know  a thing  about it
 And the lies  in the eyes of a thousand eyes
 they won't go  away
 And the times  that I tried are the times that
 I find they don't show  today
 But you  make me feel so  good
 I woke up after four, still lying on the floor,
 and waiting to be carried away
 I woke up once again, a little after ten,
 will things be any better today
 It doesn't change you see, it only changes me,
 well someone tried to tell me I'm sure
 I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
 I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
 I never knew the way that it oughta have been
 They never told me a thing about it
 I never did know a thing about it
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away
 And the times that I tried, are the times that
 I find they don't show today
 But you make me feel so good
 I'm going back to school, I'm gonna check the rule,
 and see if I get carried away
 I'm going back again, I'm gonna try again,
 don't listen what the people might say
 It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing,
 well someone tried to tell me for sure
 I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
 I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
 I never knew the way that it oughta have been
 They never told me a thing about it
 I never did know a thing about it
 And the lies  in the eyes of a thousand eyes
 they won't go  away
 And the times  that I tried are the times that
 I find they don't show  today
 But you  make me feel  so good
 I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
 I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
 I never knew the way that it oughta have been
 They never told me a thing about it
 I never did know a thing about it
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away
 And the times that I tried, are the times that
 I find they don't show today
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away
 And the times that I tried, are the times that
 I find they don't show today
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away
 And the times that I tried, are the times that
 I find they don't show today
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away
 And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
 they won't go away

I had an[G]other drink after another drink
and then I tried to crawl to the d[D7]oor

I had another smoke after another joke
and then I couldn't take any m[G]ore

It didn't change a thing, not any single thing
when someone tried to tell me for s[C]ure
I heard an[G]other voice that said I wa[D]sn't in a dream
I read a wo[G]rd or two about e[D]verything
I never kn[G]ew the way that it ou[D]ghta have been
They n[C]ever told [D]me a t[G]hing about it
I ne[C]ver did kn[D]ow a th[G]ing about it

And the l[C]ies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
they won't [G]go away
And the t[C]imes that I tried are the times that
I find they don't s[G]how today
But y[F]ou make me f[C]eel [F]so g[G]ood  [C]     [F]       [G]

I woke up after four, still lying on the floor,
and waiting to be carried away
I woke up once again, a little after ten,
will things be any better today
It doesn't change you see, it only changes me,
well someone tried to tell me I'm sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it

And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that
I find they don't show today
But you make me feel so good

I'm going back to school, I'm gonna check the rule,
and see if I get carried away
I'm going back again, I'm gonna try again,
don't listen what the people might say
It doesn't change a thing, not any single thing,
well someone tried to tell me for sure
I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it

And the l[C]ies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
they won't [G]go away
And the t[C]imes that I tried are the times that
I find they don't s[G]how today
But y[F]ou make me f[C]eel so [G]go[F]od[C]

I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream
I'm gonna read the lines and get a look between
I never knew the way that it oughta have been
They never told me a thing about it
I never did know a thing about it

And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
And the times that I tried, are the times that
I find they don't show today
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes,
they won't go away
