[Verse]

Bb                         F
Love can’t you see I’m alone
Dm                            Gm
Can’t you give this fool a chance
            Gm/F        Eb
A little love is all I ask
      F                 Bb
A little kindness in the night
                        F
Please don’t leave me behind
Dm                         Gm
No, don’t tell me love is blind
            Gm/F        Eb
A little love is all I ask
          F
And that is all


[Verse]

Ooh, love, I’ve been searchin so long
I’ve been searchin high and low
A little love is all I ask
A little sadness when you go
Maybe you’ll need a friend
Only please don’t let’s pretend
A little love is all I ask
And that is all


[Refrain]

                    Gm
I wanna spread my wings
                   Eb
But I just can’t fly
               Cm
As a string of pearls
      Eb                     F
The pretty girls go sailin' by


[Chorus]

       Bb
Ocean deep
            Eb                F
I’m so afraid to show my feelings
            Dm               Gm
I have sailed a million ceilings
Eb                F
In my solitary room
       Eb Bb
Ocean deep
            Eb       F/Eb
Will I ever find a lover
    Dm                 Gm
Maybe she has found another
                  Eb      F
And as I cry myself to sleep
Bb/D                Eb           F
I know this love of mine I’ll keep
        Bb
Ocean deep


[Verse]

Now, can’t you hear when I call
Can’t you hear the word I say
A little love is all I ask
A little feelin when we touch
Why am I still alone
I’ve got a heart without a home
A little love is all I ask
        Bb
. . . deep
 Eb         F Eb F
I’m so lonely, lonely, lonely
Eb                 Bb
On my own in my room
