Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: Eb G# | C# G#  } 2 times

Eb
I don’t know why,
              G#  G#sus4 G#
I just know I do,
C#
I just can’t explain
        Cm       G#     Eb   Ebsus2
In this language that I use.

Eb
Something leaves me speechless,
                     G#      G#sus4 G#
Each time that you approach.
     C#
Each time you glide right through me
   Cm   G#    Eb
As if I was a ghost.

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

Chorus:
  Bb                       Ebm 
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     B            C#
     I don’t understand.
                         Cm75-
     But I heard it in a film
              F7            F#
     One time spoken by the leading man.
  Bb                   Ebm 
     He said it with devotion,
        B             C#
     He sounded so sincere.
                               Cm75-
     And the words he spoke in Spanish
                 F7             F#
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  G#           Bbm      G# F#
     A word in Spanish,
  G#           Bbm      G#
     A word in Spanish.

   Eb
If you can’t comprehend,
              G#
Read it in my eyes.
   C#
If you don’t understand it’s love
Cm   G#      Eb     Ebsus2
In a thin disguise.

    Eb
And what it takes to move you,
                     G#    G#sus4 G#
Each time that you resist,
   C#
Is more than just a pretty face
   Cm         G#  Eb
To prove that I exist.

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

Chorus:
  Bb                       Ebm 
     And there’s a word in Spanish
     B            C#
     I don’t understand.
                         Cm75-
     But I heard it in a film

                 F7             F#
     Brought the female lead to tears.
  G#           Bbm      G# F#
     A word in Spanish,
  G#           Bbm
     A word in Spanish.

Bridge:
        Ebm             G#7
   When manners make no difference,
          C#6
   And my gifts all lay undone.
     Ebm
   I trade my accent in on chance
       C7              F
   And fall back on a foreign tongue.
