Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: E A | D A  } 2 times

E
I don’t know why,
              A   Asus4 A
I just know I do,
D
I just can’t explain
        C#m      A/C#   E    Esus2
In this language that I use.

E
Something leaves me speechless,
                     A       Asus4 A
Each time that you approach.
     D
Each time you glide right through me
   C#m  A/C#  E
As if I was a ghost.

                   D/A  A
   If I only could tell you,
                     E/B B
   If you only would listen,
              C#m     D      E      F#
   I’ve got a line or two to use on you,
              D       A/C#         E
   I’ve got a romance we could christen.

Chorus:
  B/F#                     Em/G
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     C            D
     I don’t understand.
                         C#m75-
     But I heard it in a film
              F#7/Bb        G
     One time spoken by the leading man.
  B/F#                 Em/G
     He said it with devotion,
        C             D
     He sounded so sincere.
                               C#m75-
     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 F#7/Bb         G
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  A            Bm       A G
     A word in Spanish,
  A            Bm       A
     A word in Spanish.

   E
If you can’t comprehend,
              A
Read it in my eyes.
   D
If you don’t understand it’s love
C#m  A/C#    E      Esus2
In a thin disguise.

    E
And what it takes to move you,
                     A     Asus4 A
Each time that you resist,
   D
Is more than just a pretty face
   C#m        A/C# E
To prove that I exist.

                   D/A  A
   If I only could tell you,
                     E/B B
   If you only would listen,
              C#m     D      E      F#
   I’ve got a line or two to use on you,
              D       A/C#         E
   I’ve got a romance we could christen.

Chorus:
  B/F#                     Em/G
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     C            D
     I don’t understand.
                         C#m75-
     But I heard it in a film

     Brought the female lead to tears.
  A            Bm       A G
     A word in Spanish,
  A            Bm
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Em              A7
   When manners make no difference,
          D6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Em
   I trade my accent in on chance
       C#7             F#
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
