Intro: C#m A E B (x2)


Verse 1:
E                  A
Think you're going nowhere
            C#m               B
When you're walking down the street
E                A
Acting like you just don't care
      C#m              B
When life could be so sweet
E             A
Why you wanna be like that
   C#m                 B
As if there's nothing new
E            A
You're not fooling no one
C#m              B
You're not even fooling you
   E   A
So walk a little slower
    C#m   B
And open up your eyes
E    A
Sometimes it's so hard to see
    C#m                  B
The good things passing by
      E           A
There might never be a sign
   C#m            B
No flashing neon light
E             A
Telling you to make your move 
   C#m               B
Or when the time is right

[CHORUS]
     C#m  A
(So) Why not (Why not)
E            B
Take a crazy chance
C#m  A
Why not (Why not)
E            B
Do a crazy dance
C#m            A
If you lose a moment
E               B   
You might lose a lot
   C#m  A
So why not
E   A
Why not

Verse 2:
    E               A
You always dress in yellow
         C#m             B
When you wanna dress in gold
  E                  A
Instead of listening to your heart
    C#m                  B
You do just what you're told
E                A
You keep waiting where you are
    C#m                B
For what you'll never know
      E         A
Let's just get into your car
C#m      B
And go baby go

[CHORUS]
C#m  A
(So) Why not (Why not)
E            B
Take a crazy chance
C#m  A
Why not (Why not)
E            B
Do a crazy dance
C#m            A
If you lose a moment
E               B   
You might lose a lot
   A  E
So why not
A  E
Why not

Bridge 2:
E A
Oh 
C#m          B
I could be the one for you
E   A
Oh, yeah
      C#m         B
Maybe yes, maybe no
E A
Oh
C#m              B
It could be the thing to do
C#m       A
What I'm saying is
    E            B   C#m
You gotta let me know

Bridge 3:
C#m
You'll never get to heaven
   B
Or even to L.A.
E                              A
If you don't believe there's a way
C#m   A
Why not
E                   B
Take a star from the sky
C#m     A
Why not
E                     B
Spread your wings and fly
C#m              A
It might take a little
    E              B
And it might take a lot
    C#m  A
But why not
E   C#m
Why not

[CHORUS]

Do a crazy dance
C#m            A
If you lose a moment
E               B   
You might lose a lot
   C#m  A
So why not
E   A
Why not
