   C                                                       E        - A

1.   They say that you're a runaround lover,

                        Dm   - G            C   - F - G

    though you say,         it isn't so.

C                                                 E       - A

    But if you put me down for another,

     D               D7                    G    - G7

    I'll know, believe me, I'll know !

 

                    C

'Cause the night has a thousand eyes,

                          Dm     - G                         C

and a thousand eyes,        can't help but see,

   Dm  - G                     C

if you         are true to me.

            Dm                 G                  C              Am

So remember when you tell those little white lies,

              Dm   - G                            C

that the night        has a thousand eyes.

 

   C                                                                   E           - A

2.   You say that you're at home when you phone me,

                     Dm   - G                   C      - F - G

    and how much        you really care.

C                                                                 E         - A

    Though you keep telling me that you're lonely,

     D               D7                G     - G7

    I'll know if someone is there.

3.     One of these days you're gonna be sorry,

                        Dm     - G                     C    - F - G

    'cause your game         I'm gonna play.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

C                                                       E        - A

    And you'll find out without really trying,

      D                    D7               G      - G7

    each time that my kisses stray.

 

                   C

'Cause the night has a thousand eyes,

                         Dm     - G                       C

and a thousand eyes,        will see me, too.

       Dm  - G                         C

And no           matter what I do,

             Dm          G               C              Am

I could never disguise all my little white lies,

                  Dm   - G                            C

'cause the night        has a thousand eyes.

 

               Dm                  G                  C             Am

+  So remember when you tell those little white lies,

                  Dm   - G                            C

    that the night,       has a thousand eyes !
