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