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