Intro: 
  Gm | Gm F/A
  Bb | Bb Bb F/C Dm

  Eb | Eb | F | D
  Gm

Gm          F/A         Bb
It can’t be said I’m an early bird.
           F/C     Dm     Eb
It’s ten o’clock before I say a word.
                  F
Baby, I can never tell.
                    D
How do you sleep so well?

                       Gm
You keep telling me to live right,
         F/A            Bb
To go to bed before the daylight,
             F/C     Dm      Ebmaj
But then you wake up for the sunrise.
                            Bb
You know you don’t gotta pretend,
              D/A
Baby, now and then.

  D/A                    Gm
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       F/A          Bb
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      Fadd9/C      Dm  Eb
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      F
   But while in this world,

Chorus:
                  D7
     I think I’ll take
                Gm
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     F/A    Bb
     And my bed at three.
                F/C   Dm   Eb
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      F   Bb
     You’re too sweet for me.

       D7          D7/F# Gm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               F/A
     My coffee black
            Bb
     And my bed at three.
                F/C   Dm   Eb
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          F6 D7 D7/F#
     For me.

      Gm
I aim low,
I aim true,
        F/A              Bb
And the ground’s where I go.
I work late,
          F/C  Dm       Eb
Where I’m free from the phone,
And the job gets done,
        F             D
But you worry some, I know.

                        Gm
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               F/A
You treat your mouth
           Bb
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            F/C
The rest of you
     Dm         Ebmaj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   Bb
I wish I could go along, babe,
             D7/A
Don’t get me wrong.

  D7/A
   You know you’re bright
          Gm
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     F/A        Bb
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              F/C    Dm Eb
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               F
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                D7
     I’d rather take
                Gm
     My whiskey neat,
               F/A
     My coffee black
            Bb
     And my bed at three.
                F/C   Dm   Eb
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          Bb
     You’re too sweet for me.

       D7/A            Gm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               F/A
     My coffee black
            Bb
     And my bed at three.
                F/C   Dm   Eb
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          F6 D7
     You’re too sweet for me.

     My coffee black
            Bb
     And my bed at three.
                F/C   Dm   Eb
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          Bb D7/A
     You’re too sweet for me.
