Intro
(*Just hit the guitar to the beat*)
[Verse 1]
C#maj7 C#7
I was just minding my own business
F#maj7 F#m
Workin late, on a break, and i witness
C#maj7 C#7
G# girl and she's gorgeous, ordering boba
F#maj7 F#m
Already sounds like one of those soap operas
C#maj7 C#7
I haven't been in love for a while
F#maj7 F#m
So i say why not and i flash her a smile
C#maj7
She smiles back at me
C#7
Is this a fantasy
F#maj7 F#m
Is she walking up to me?
C#maj7 C#7
She says "hey there, do I know you from somewhere?
F#maj7 F#m
I hate to pry but you look so familiar."
C#maj7
And that's when it hits me
C#7 (one strum)
She works at quicklys
F#maj7 F#m
It was just meant to be
[Chorus]
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
Think i'm falling in love love love with a lil filipino thang
C#maj7
And i know know know
C#7 F#maj7 F#m
That she is the one for me
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
[Verse 2]
C#maj7 C#7
I get to know her more as time passes
F#maj7 F#m
When she's not working hard in her classes
C#maj7
She wants to be an artist
C#7
Cause that's where her heart is
F#maj7 F#m
But nanay says it won't get her paid
C#maj7 C#7
She makes me laugh like nobody else do
F#maj7 F#m
So many things girl that i want to tell you
C#maj7 C#7
But i'm too nervous, afraid to go further
F#maj7 F#m
But i'm workin up the courage to say
[Chorus]
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
I'm in love love love with a lil filipino thang
C#maj7
And i know know know
C#7 F#maj7 F#m
That she is the one for me

[Bridge]
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
Nais kong nasa buhay mo
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
Ka tulad ng ikaw sa buhay ko
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
Ikaw ay nasa puso ko pa rin
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
Kahit na makalimutan mo ako
[Chorus]
C#maj7 C#7 F#maj7 F#m
I'm in love love love with a lil filipino thang
C#maj7
And i know know know
C#7 F#maj7 F#m
That she is the one for me
(x2)
(*The rest of the song also follows this pattern*)
(*With several "She is the one for me, she ain't the one for me*)
