[D] [G] [C]
[G] [D] [G]
[C] [G] [D] I don't know why, I just [G] know I do
[C] I just can't explain
[G] In this language that [D] I use
Something leaves me speechless
Each time that [G] you approach
[C] Each time you glide right through me
[Bm] As if I [D] was a ghost
If I [C] only could [G] tell you
If you [D] only would [A] listen
[Bm] I've got a [C] lot [D] to, to [E] use on you
[C] I've got a [G] romance [D] we could christen
[A] Never [Dm] would have thought
[Bb] It'd be [C] this day
But I heard it at [B] nothing one [Ab] time
Spoken [F] by the leading man
[A] He said it [Dm] with devotion
[Bb] He sounded [C] so sincere
And the words are [B] spoken Spanish
[Ab] But the feet merely [F] if you tease

[G] [F] A [G]
[Am] word in Spanish
[G] [D] If you can't comprehend
Read it in [G] my eyes
[C] If you don't understand
It's [G] love [Bm] in a thin [D] disguise
And what it takes to [Em] move you
[D] Each [G] time that you resist
[C] Is more than just a pretty [G] face
To prove that [D] I exist
If I [G] only could tell you
If you [D] only would [A] listen
[Bm] I've got a [C] lot to, [D] to use [E] on you
I've [C] got a [G] romance [D] we could christen

But I heard it at [B] nothing one [Ab] time
