[Intro] A7M 

A7M                              F#m   E    D7M 
You took Spanish in high school, but I took French
A
So when you're tired and delirious at almost 2am
         D
You type sentences into Google Translate

And then you send them to me
A                  D             E
"Je pense que Lea est tres jolie"
F#m          E          D                       E
I don't think you know just how much it means to me
F#m                 A
To watch you try to call me pretty
     D            E                  A
In a language I know that you can't speak


You told me you didn't remember sh*t from Spanish class
Bm                                    E    D7M  E
You didn't know how you passed but you did
A
So even if I wanted to call you pretty back in your high school
Bm       D                Bm                     D7M    Em7
Foreign language neither one of us would know what I said
E                F#m
So I'll stick to French
          E          D
Je pense que tu es tres jolie aussi
F#m              E
I think you're pretty too
       D7M                        F#m
In a language that you still don't speak
           E
Then I said

Je t'aime
        D
Je t'aime

Je t'aime
               F#m
Over and over again
                 E
A confession in French
           D                 E            A
Because I knew you wouldn't know what it meant

       G         F#m       A
And I know that you don't fall as easily as I do
    G               F#m                  A            C#m   A
So I won't press my luck, and say it in words you'll understand
     G                    F#m
I'm too scared that if I tell you
A
I love you (I love you)
C#m
Te Amo (Te Amo)
     G                            F#m         E    A
I'd never get to hear you call me tres jolie again

                                 D7M 
You took spanish in high school, but I took french
    A
I'm in college now and it's been four years since then
       D7M          D
But I knew exactly what you said when you had sent
A                     D      A     F#m    E              A
"Je pense que Lea est tres jolie", you copied and you pasted
D                          F#
But it meant everything to me
              E        F#     D7M            A7M 
To watch you try to call me pretty in a language you can't speak
