A Little Bit Of Emotion Uke tab by The Kinks

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
