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
[Cm] 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
[Cm] 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-
[Cm]-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
[Cm] 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
