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