Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: B E | A E  } 2 times

B
I don’t know why,
              E   Esus4 E
I just know I do,
A
I just can’t explain
        G#m      E/G#   B    Bsus2
In this language that I use.

B
Something leaves me speechless,
                     E       Esus4 E
Each time that you approach.
     A
Each time you glide right through me
   G#m  E/G#  B
As if I was a ghost.

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

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

   B
If you can’t comprehend,
              E
Read it in my eyes.
   A
If you don’t understand it’s love
G#m  E/G#    B      Bsus2
In a thin disguise.

    B
And what it takes to move you,
                     E     Esus4 E
Each time that you resist,
   A
Is more than just a pretty face
   G#m        E/G# B
To prove that I exist.

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

Chorus:

     And there’s a word in Spanish
     G            A
     I don’t understand.
                         G#m75-
     But I heard it in a film
              C#7/F         D

     Brought the female lead to tears.
  E            F#m      E D
     A word in Spanish,
  E            F#m
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Bm              E7
   When manners make no difference,
          A6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Bm
   I trade my accent in on chance
       G#7             C#
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
