Reba McEntire, Why Not Tonight (1986)
Key: :[C] (w: Jon Vezner, David Stringfellow, Nancy Montgomery)
VERSE 1:
[C] Well pardon me but you have my attention, ever since you strolled into the
[G] room
Believe me that it's not my intention, if I appear to come on too
[C] smooth
It's
[C] not like me to make such advances, but this time baby I could not re-
[F]-sist
So if you're up for taking a
[C] chance on
[Am] love, I
[F] can't see a
[G] better time than
[C] this
[C open]
CHORUS:
So baby
[C] why not tonight, This could be the start of something
[G] right
Hey you can take it easy, We can take it so slow, We can take it anywhere that you'd like to
[C] go
So baby why not tonight, The stars are out and I'm sure they'll a-
[F]-gree
Oh it's a perfect night for
[C] falling in
[Am] love, So
[F] why not fall in
[G] love with
[C] me
VERSE 2:
Oh
[C] maybe we could go out for some dinner, And later on how we could do the
[G] town
Ya know I consider myself a winner, Just to have a boy like you a-
[C]-round
Then
[C] if you're up for doing some dancing, Yeah I know a place they dance until the
[F] dawn
Anything you like will
[C] be al-
[Am]-right, so
[F] why not take a
[G] chance and come a-
[C]-long
[C open]
CHORUS:
So baby
[C] why not tonight, This could be the start of something
[G] right
Hey you can take it easy, We can take it so slow, We can take it anywhere
[C] that you'd like to go
So baby why not tonight, The stars are out and I'm sure they'll a-
[F]-gree
Oh it's a perfect night for
[C] falling in
[Am] love,
So
[F] why not fall in
[G] love, so
[F] why not fall in
[G] love
So
[F] why not fall in
[G] love with
[C] me
