Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: G C | F C  } 2 times

G
I don’t know why,
              C   Csus4 C
I just know I do,
F
I just can’t explain
        Em       C      G    Gsus2
In this language that I use.

G
Something leaves me speechless,
                     C       Csus4 C
Each time that you approach.
     F
Each time you glide right through me
   Em   C     G
As if I was a ghost.

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

Chorus:
  D                        Gm  
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     Eb           F
     I don’t understand.
                         Em75-
     But I heard it in a film
              A7            Bb
     One time spoken by the leading man.
  D                    Gm  
     He said it with devotion,
        Eb            F
     He sounded so sincere.
                               Em75-
     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 A7             Bb
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  C            Dm       C Bb
     A word in Spanish,
  C            Dm       C
     A word in Spanish.

   G
If you can’t comprehend,
              C
Read it in my eyes.
   F
If you don’t understand it’s love
Em   C       G      Gsus2
In a thin disguise.

    G
And what it takes to move you,
                     C     Csus4 C
Each time that you resist,
   F
Is more than just a pretty face
   Em         C   G
To prove that I exist.

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

Chorus:
  D                        Gm  
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     Eb           F
     I don’t understand.
                         Em75-
     But I heard it in a film

  D                    Gm

     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 A7             Bb
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  C            Dm       C Bb
     A word in Spanish,
  C            Dm
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Gm              C7
   When manners make no difference,
          F6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Gm
   I trade my accent in on chance
       E7              A
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
