A Word In Spanish
Elton John/Bernie Taupin
D
I don't know why
G
I just know I do
C
I just can't explain
G
In this language that I use
Something leaves me speechless
Each time that you approach
Each time you glide right through me
As if I was a ghost
Pre-chorus:
D C G
If I only could tell you
G D A
If you only would listen
A Bm C D E
I've got a line or two to use on you
E C G D
I've got a romance we could christen
Chorus:
A Dm
And there's a word in Spanish
Fm6 C
I don't understand
C Bdim
But I heard it in a film one time
E7 F
Spoken by the leading man
He said it with devotion
He sounded so sincere
And the words he spoke in Spanish
Brought the female lead to tears
G Am F G Am
A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish
If you can't comprehend
Read it in my eyes
If you don't understand it's love
In a thin disguise
And what it takes to move you
Each time that you resist
Is more than just a pretty face
To prove that I exist
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Dm G
When manners make no difference
C
And my gifts all lay undone
Dm
I trade my accent in on chance
B E
And fall back on a foreign tongue
Chorus
