Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: F Bb | Eb Bb  } 2 times

F
I don’t know why,
              Bb  Bbsus4 Bb
I just know I do,
Eb
I just can’t explain
        Dm       Bb     F    Fsus2
In this language that I use.

F
Something leaves me speechless,
                     Bb      Bbsus4 Bb
Each time that you approach.
     Eb
Each time you glide right through me
   Dm   Bb    F
As if I was a ghost.

                   Eb   Bb
   If I only could tell you,
                     F   C
   If you only would listen,
              Dm      Eb     F      G
   I’ve got a line or two to use on you,
              Eb      Bb           F
   I’ve got a romance we could christen.

Chorus:
  C                        Fm  
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     C#           Eb
     I don’t understand.
                         Dm75-
     But I heard it in a film
              G7            G#
     One time spoken by the leading man.
  C                    Fm  
     He said it with devotion,
        C#            Eb
     He sounded so sincere.
                               Dm75-
     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 G7             G#
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  Bb           Cm       Bb G#
     A word in Spanish,
  Bb           Cm       Bb
     A word in Spanish.

   F
If you can’t comprehend,
              Bb
Read it in my eyes.
   Eb
If you don’t understand it’s love
Dm   Bb      F      Fsus2
In a thin disguise.

    F
And what it takes to move you,
                     Bb    Bbsus4 Bb
Each time that you resist,
   Eb
Is more than just a pretty face
   Dm         Bb  F
To prove that I exist.

                   Eb   Bb
   If I only could tell you,
                     F   C
   If you only would listen,
              Dm      Eb     F      G
   I’ve got a line or two to use on you,
              Eb      Bb           F
   I’ve got a romance we could christen.

Chorus:
  C                        Fm  
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     C#           Eb
     I don’t understand.
                         Dm75-
     But I heard it in a film
              G7            G#

     Brought the female lead to tears.
  Bb           Cm       Bb G#
     A word in Spanish,
  Bb           Cm
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Fm              Bb7
   When manners make no difference,
          Eb6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Fm
   I trade my accent in on chance
       D7              G
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
