[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
When the [C]warship's left Manila
sailing [F]proudly o'er the sea
All the [C]sailors hearts were
[D]filled with fond re[G]gret
Looking [C]backward to this island where
they [F]spent such happy hours
Making [G]love to [D]every [G]pretty
girl they've [C]met

[Verse 2]
Well up [C]stopped a little sailor with
his [F]pride eyes all aglow
Saying [C]take a look at [D]my
girl's photo[G]graph
Then the [C]sailors gathered round
him just [F]to look upon her face
And he [G]said,? I love my Filipino baby?
[C]

[Verse 3]
She's my Filipino baby she's
my [F]treasure and my pet
Her [C]teeth are bright and pearly
and her [D]hair is black as [G]jet
Oh her [C]lips are sweet as honey [D]and
[C]her [F]heart is true I know
She's my [G]darling [D]little [G]Filipino
[C]baby oh Jimmy

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][G][C]

[Verse 4]
In a [C]little rustic cottage in
the [F]port of Filipines
Dwells a [C]lonely little [D]maiden all [G]alone
She is [C]thinking of her true love
[D]though [C]he's [F]far across the sea
And her [G]heart beats true for
him and him alone
[C]

[Verse 5]
Then one day he whispered,? Darling
I've come [F]back from Caroline
I've come [C]back to claim
the [D]only girl I [G]love?
And that [C]night there was a wedding while
the [F]ships crew gathered round
And he [G]wed his little Filipino baby
[C]

[Verse 6]
She's my Filipino baby she's
my [F]treasure and my pet
Her [C]teeth are bright and pearly
and her [D]hair is black as [G]jet
Oh her [C]lips are sweet as honey and
her [F]heart is true I know
She's my [G]darling little Filipino baby
[C]
