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