Oh baby, why not?
Just take one [C#] more chance and risk all we got
On this luckless [F#]
romance
If someone asks why, we'll say we [B] heard God
And went [F#] kinda crazy, [C#] oh baby, [F#] why not?
[C#] If love needs a fool [B] for it [F#] to survive
[C#] It sure looks to me [B] like we both [F#] qualify
And a pair of foes will always [B] be one
So let's [F#] play the cards [C#] and guess if [F#] he's done
Oh baby, why not?
Bet big [C#] on the bliss and laugh in the face
Of what all [F#] life's in six
If someone asks why, we'll say we [B] forgot
And both lost [F#] our minds, [C#] oh baby, [F#] why not?

[C#] Oh [F#] baby, please
[C#] You and I are exactly what [F#] we need
So
[B] let's throw away all [F#] care and move out on the edge somewhere
[C#] Find a place and just swing there in the breeze
[F#] Hey baby, why not?
Just take one [C#] more chance and risk all we got
On this luckless [F#]
romance
If someone asks why, we'll say we [B] forgot
And threw our lives [F#] away, oh [C#] baby, why [F#] not?

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, why not?
Why not, why not, why not, why not, why not, why not, why not, why not, why not, why not?
Give me three good reasons and I'll let you go
No, give me five good reasons and I'll let you go
Uh-huh
No, four don't count because that's your mother's reason
Hey, don't bite me
Oh baby
