Let me know what you think. Wasn't 100% on the run at the
end of the 'my body knew what she was sayin' part. any corrections
are welcome.
*Thanks goes to Rune for the help*
(Verse 1)
A
'No habla Espannol'
D A
Was all I knew of the local lingo.
D A
That old pocket guide to Mexico,
E A
Wasn't much help to this out of place Gringo.
When I checked into my motel room,
D A
I was helped by a brown-eyed senorita:
D A
She said: 'Buen venidos, Senor: blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
E A
'Como esta. Buenos dias.'
(Chorus 1)
D
I don't know what she said,
A
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
E
A little voice in my head said:
A
'Boy you won't ever forget it.'
D
They say that Spanish is the language of love,
A D
Well, I love the way that it rolled off her tongue.
A
I don't know what she said,
E A
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
(Verse 2)
A
As I followed her down the hallway,
D A
I was tryin' my best not to stare.
D A
The angel before me was a rare beauty indeed,
E A
Jay-Lo had nothin' on her.
She winked an' she smiled at me sweetly.
D A
Said: 'Senor, a qui esta sou mas vez.
D A
'Muy bappo,' an' somethin' 'bout 'ho ho's.'
E A
An' I thought: 'Oh, baby, whatever you say.'
(Chorus 2)
I don't know what she said,
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
A little voice in my head said:
'Boy you won't ever forget it.'
They that Spanish is the language of love,
Well, I love the way that it rolled off her tongue.
I don't know what she said,
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
(Verse 3)
E
Later that evenin' in a local cantina,
D C#m Bm A
A Mariachi band was playin'.
E
She held me close so her body would know,
D D D D/C# E
That my body knew what she was sayin'.
(Chorus 3)
I don't know what she said,
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
A little voice in my head said:
'Boy you won't ever forget it.'
They that Spanish is the language of love,
Well, I love the way that it rolled off her tongue.
I don't know what she said,
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
No, I don't know what she said,
But I sure liked the way that she said it.
