Show some emotion
C#11 D6
Put expression in your eyes
E A
Light up
Adim Dm6/A
If you're feeling happy
A
But if it's bad
E7 Am
Then let those tears roll down
there's short pentatonic, repeating riff in the verses:
e ---------------------3--5-5---------------|
B ---------------------3--5-5---------------|
G --2-0---0------------4--5-5---------------|
D ------2---2-0-----------------------------|

E ------------------------------------------|
Am
Some people hurting
Someone choking up inside
Some poor souls dying
Too proud to say
They got no place to lie
And there's people
If they hear a joke
Can't keep the laugh
Out of their eye
A
Show some emotion
C#11 D6
Put expression in your eyes
E A
Light up
Adim Dm6/A
If you're feeling happy
A
But if it's bad
E7 Am
Then let those tears roll down
Some people in love
But all they got's a photography
How can they get it
Too scared
To open their mouth
To ask
