Apl.de.ap told Beatweek Magazine why he wanted this to be the follow up to  The Time (Dirty Bit). Said the mohawked Black Eyed Peas co-founder: &quot;It's a different tempo and it's also paying homage to the ladies. It's a love song and it's got a nice melody to it. So I think it would be a great different taste for our listeners.&quot; (Source Just Can't Get Enough Songfacts).

     Em7            Bm7            Em7                     Bm7
     Cmaj           Dmaj           Em7            Bm7


Chorus:
 Em7                  Bm7
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
 Em7                            Bm7
Ako'y may dala-dalang, balita galing sa bayan ko
 C                  D   
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
 C
How would you feel if you had to catch your meal?
 D
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
 C
Like land for farming, river for fishing
 D
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
 C
To be next to my mom with her home cooked meal
 D
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                                      D
I guess sometimes life's stresses gets you down (on your knees)
 Em7
Oh brother I wish I could have helped you out...

[Chorus]

Apl Song

What's wrong with the world mama?
People living like aint got no mamas
I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that bring you trauma
Overseas yeah we tryin to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin
In the USA the big CIA the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK 
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And if you hatin you're bound to get irate
Yeah madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
You gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate 
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all

chorus:

  G                    D
People killing people dying
                               Emin
Children hurtin you hear them crying
                           C
Can you practice what you preach
                           G
Would you turn the other cheek?
  G                      D
Father Father Father help us 
                         Emin
Send some guidance from above 
                                C
Cause people got me got me questioning 
               G              
Where is the love?
               D
where is the love?
              Emin 
where is the love?
              C     D           G
where is the looooooooooooooovveee


It just ain't the same all ways have changed
New days are strange is the world the insane?
If love and peace so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering
As the youth die young
So ask yourself is the loving really strong?
So I can ask myself really what is going wrong
With this world that we living in 
People keep on giving in
Makin wrong decisions 
Only visions of them livin and
Not respecting each other
Deny thy brother
The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover
The truth is kept secret
Swept under the rug
If you never know truth 
Then you never know love 
Where's the love y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the truth y'all?(I don't know)
Where's the love y'all?

chorus:
 G                    D
People killing people dying
                               Emin
Children hurtin you hear them crying
                           C
Can you practice what you preach
                           G
Would you turn the other cheek?
  G                      D
Father Father Father help us 
                         Emin
Send some guidance from above 
                                C
Cause people got me got me questioning 
               G              
Where is the love?
               D
where is the love?
              Emin 
where is the love?
              C     D           G
where is the looooooooooooooovveee


I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older y'all people get colder
Most of us only care about money makin
Selfishness got us followin the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what the see in the cinema
Whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love, we're spreading anomosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found

Meet Me Halfway

The Beginning & The Best Of The E.N.D.

E                        D
I had the time of my life

                               E
and I've never felt this way before

                     Bm        D
and I swear this is true and I owe it all to you


E  C#m                 D
I had the time of my life

                               E
and I've never felt this way before

                     C#m        D
and I swear this is true and I owe it all to you

The Time (dirty Bit)

G
Hey, baby my nose is getting big
  Em                           C
I noticed it be growing when I been telling them fibs
    G
Now you say your trust's getting weaker
                Em                        C
Probably coz my lies just started getting deeper
        G
And the reason for my confession is that I learn my lesson
      Em                                 C
And I really think you ought to know the truth
          G
Because I lied and I cheated and I lied a little more
    Em                          C
But after I did it I don't know what I did it for
G
I admit that I have been a little immature
Em                             C
F***ing with your heart like I was the predator
G
In my book of lies I was the editor
Em
And the author
  C
I forged my signature
    G
And now I apologise for what I did to you
    Em
Cos what you did to me I did to you



Chorus (Guitar I has no part):
Em                                        C       G
No, no, no, no baby, no, no, no, no don't lie
Em                                                          C       G
No, no, no, no, yeah, you know, know, know, know, you gotta try
Em
What you gonna do when it all comes out
       C
When I really see you & what you're all about
Em                                    C        G
No, no, no baby, no, no, no, no don't lie
Em                                                                C       G 
Yeah, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you gotta try

Don't Lie

Monkey Business

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Overreacting

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
