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