Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: Bb Eb | G# Eb  } 2 times

Bb
I don’t know why,
              Eb  Ebsus4 Eb
I just know I do,
G#
I just can’t explain
        Gm       Eb     Bb   Bbsus2
In this language that I use.

Bb
Something leaves me speechless,
                     Eb      Ebsus4 Eb
Each time that you approach.
     G#
Each time you glide right through me
   Gm   Eb    Bb
As if I was a ghost.

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

Chorus:
  F                        Bbm 
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     F#           G#
     I don’t understand.
                         Gm75-
     But I heard it in a film
              C7            C#
     One time spoken by the leading man.
  F                    Bbm 
     He said it with devotion,
        F#            G#
     He sounded so sincere.
                               Gm75-
     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 C7             C#
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  Eb           Fm       Eb C#
     A word in Spanish,
  Eb           Fm       Eb
     A word in Spanish.

   Bb
If you can’t comprehend,
              Eb
Read it in my eyes.
   G#
If you don’t understand it’s love
Gm   Eb      Bb     Bbsus2
In a thin disguise.

    Bb
And what it takes to move you,
                     Eb    Ebsus4 Eb
Each time that you resist,
   G#
Is more than just a pretty face
   Gm         Eb  Bb
To prove that I exist.

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

  Eb           Fm       Eb C#
     A word in Spanish,
  Eb           Fm
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Bbm             Eb7
   When manners make no difference,
          G#6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Bbm
   I trade my accent in on chance
       G7              C
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
