Intro:
Dbm A     E    B   Dbm A
ayy yahhh yahh yahh
       E B

Verse:
    E                  A
You think you're going nowhere
         Dbm            B
when you're walking down the street 
       E             A
Acting like you just don't care 
       Dbm                B
when life could be so sweet
E                A
So why you wanna be like that, 
  Dbm              B
This is nothing new 
A
You're not foolin no one 
you're not even foolin you

     E              A
So I walk a little slower
      Dbm               B
and I try to catch your eye
E                 A
Sometimes it's so hard to see
    Dbm                 B
The good things passing by
E               A
There may never be a sign
   Dbm           B
no flashing neon light
A
Telling you to make your move
Or when the time is right so

Chorus:
Dbm A   E            B
Why not take a crazy chance
Dbm A   E          B
Why not do a crazy dance
Dbm             A
If you lose the moment
E                B
you might lose a lot
   A   E  A    E
So why not why not

Post-chorus:
E       A
Why not take a crazy chance
Dbm     B
Why not take a crazy chance

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

Chorus:
Dbm A   E            B
Why not take a crazy chance
Dbm A   E          B
Why not do a crazy dance
Dbm             A
If you lose the moment
E                B
you might lose a lot
   A   E  A    E
So why not why not

Dbm    A   E                     B
   Why not take a star from the sky
Dbm    A  E          B
Why not  spread your wings and fly
Dbm             A
It might take a little
    E               B
and it might take a lot
    A   E  A     E
But why not, why not
