C
See all the people

G    F
With hatred in their eyes

C                     G
I can't help thinking that

     F  
It's only a disguise

      C               G
Cause underneath that core

                  F
There's got to be more

                   G
Than what we realize

C
Maybe they're scared

    G      F 
To let the inside out

C
Maybe they're afraid to

G          F
Show what they're all about

        C               G                  F 
So they put on a heavy front and hope that no one else

               G
Can work them out

        Am       F            G
So they put on all the heaviness

        Am       F             G 
But its only an illusion heaviness

          F
Can't you see

         G
They're scared to

C             G        F
Show a little bit of emotion

C             G        F
A little bit of real emotion

   C             G        F
In case a little bit of emotion

             G
Gives them away

C                  G        F
Look at that lady dancing around with no clothes

       C
She'll give you all her body

G          F
That's if you've got the dough

       C
She'll let you see most

G            F
Anything but there's one thing

                  G
That she'll never show

             C             G      F
And that's a little bit of real emotion

   C            G       F
A little bit of true emotion

   C             G        F  
In case a little bit of emotion

           G
Gives her away

           Am          F           G
But it's a shame she's acting that way

              Am        F             G
Somehow she's gotta get through every day

              F       G
And the only way

          C               G        F
Is not to show one little bit of emotion

   C            G      F
A little bit of true emotion

   C             G        F                 G
In case a little bit of emotion gives her away

AM
People learn their lines

         G
And they act out their part

          F
Then they talk on cue

	 C
But it's got no heart

     Am
It's all on the surface

         G
And it's all contrived

        F
They're scared to come out

                       G
Somehow they've got to survive

C
Look at that looney

G      F            
With a smile on his face

   C
He knows no shame

G   F
And feels no disgrace

     G      C
He's got a look in his eyes

     G        F                         G
That makes it seem that he's from outer space

C                 G            F
Maybe that looney knows what it's all about

G        C
He's got something to say

G       F                  G
But he can't spit it out

     C              G        F
He's unco-ordinated so we - shut him out

        G  C              G       F
In case he shows a little bit of emotion

   C            G      F
A little bit of real emotion

       C              G       F
We're afraid to see a bit of emotion

      G
So we walk away

C             G            F
Show a little bit of real emotion

C              G       F
Show a little bit of emotion

        C              G       F
We're afraid to see a bit of emotion

       G       
So we walk away
