The song doesnt actually strum any chords. Rather its picking the entire time, but I
it out for everyone. The ending of the intro, the Bm7, is just my interpretation, but it works.

Chorus:
Em7 Bm7
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
Em7 Bm7
Ako'y may dala-dalang, balita galing sa bayan ko
Cmaj Dmaj
Nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kwento
Em7
Ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap
Bm7 Em7
Sa lupang pinangako
Verse 1:
Every place got a ghetto this is my version
Check it out...
Em7
Listen closely yo, I got a story to tell
Bm7
A version of my ghetto where life felt for real
Em7
Some would call it hell but to me it was heaven
Bm7
God gave me the grace, amazin' ways of living
Cmaj
How would you feel if you had to catch your meal?
Dmaj
Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in.
Em7
Having to pump the water outta the ground
Bm7
The way we put it down utilizing what is around
Cmaj
Like land for farming, river for fishing
Dmaj
Everyone helpin' each other whenever they can
Em7
We makin' it happen, from nothin' to somethin'
That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland.
[Chorus]
Verse 2:
Yo, its been a while but...
I been back home to my homeland, (check it out) to see what's going on
Em7
Man it feels good to be back at home
Bm7
And it's been a decade, on the journey all alone
Em7
I was fourteen when I first left Philippines
Bm7
I've been away half my life, but it felt like a day
Cmaj
To be next to my mom with her home cooked meal
Dmaj
Meant I felt complete, my emotions I feel!
Em7
Now life has changed for me in the U.S
Bm7
But back at home man, life was a mess...
Cmaj Dmaj
I guess sometimes life's stresses gets you down (on your knees)
Em7
Oh brother I wish I could have helped you out...
[Chorus]
