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
[A#m] 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
[A#m] 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-
[A#m]-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
[A#m] 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
