-2 3 -3 -2 -1 1
If you think can-dy’s sweet
-2 3 -3 -3 -2 -1 1
There’s a girl you ought to meet
-2 3 -3 -3 -3* 4 -5 4 3
Su-gar drips from her lips when she sighs
-2 3 -3 -2 -1 -2
But the love light that lies
3 3* 3* -2 -1 -2
With-in my ba-by’s eyes
2 -1 1 3 -2 2 -3 3 -2
How it lies, how it lies, how it lies
She has style she has charms
And a pair of lov-in’ arms
That I’m dyin’ to try on for size
But the love light that lies
Within my baby’s eyes
How it lies, how it lies, how it lies
-2 -3* -3* -3* -3* -3* 4 -3* -3* -3
Her name tops the list Of ev-‘ry flor-ist
-2 3 3 3 -3 -3* 4 -3* -3
Her beaux are stand-in’ ten deep in line
-2 -3* -3*-3* -3* 4 -3* -3* -3
With all of the trees in the for-est
4 -3 3 3 -3 3 -2 2 -2 3
Why should I be the on-ly lone-some pine
Oh, there’s heart break in store
When the one you adore
Is a devil in angel’s disguise
For the love light that lies
Is the love light that dies
When it lies, how it lies, how it lies
