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:
DC G
If I only could tell you
G D A
If you only would listen
A Bm CDE
I've got a line or two to use on you
E C G D
I've got a romance we could christen
Chorus:
ADm
And there's a word in Spanish
Fm6 C
I don't understand
C Bdim
But I heard it in a film one time
E7F
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 GAm
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
