  Bbm

Bbm         G#/C        C#
It can’t be said I’m an early bird.
           G#/D#   Fm     F#
It’s ten o’clock before I say a word.
                  G#
Baby, I can never tell.
                    F
How do you sleep so well?

                       Bbm
You keep telling me to live right,
         G#/C           C#
To go to bed before the daylight,
             G#/D#   Fm      F#maj
But then you wake up for the sunrise.
                            C#
You know you don’t gotta pretend,
              F/C
Baby, now and then.

  F/C                    Bbm
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       G#/C         C#
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      G#add9/D#    Fm  F#
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      G#
   But while in this world,

Chorus:
                  F7
     I think I’ll take
                Bbm
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     G#/C   C#
     And my bed at three.
                G#/D# Fm   F#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      G#  C#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       F7          F7/A  Bbm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               G#/C
     My coffee black
            C#
     And my bed at three.
                G#/D# Fm   F#
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          G#6 F7 F7/A
     For me.

      Bbm
I aim low,
I aim true,
        G#/C             C#
And the ground’s where I go.
I work late,
          G#/D# Fm      F#
Where I’m free from the phone,
And the job gets done,
        G#            F
But you worry some, I know.

                        Bbm
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               G#/C
You treat your mouth
           C#
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            G#/D#
The rest of you
     Fm         F#maj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   C#
I wish I could go along, babe,
             F7/C
Don’t get me wrong.

  F7/C
   You know you’re bright
          Bbm
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     G#/C       C#
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              G#/D#  Fm F#
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               G#
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                F7
     I’d rather take
                Bbm
     My whiskey neat,
               G#/C
     My coffee black
            C#
     And my bed at three.
                G#/D# Fm   F#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          C#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       F7/C            Bbm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               G#/C
     My coffee black
            C#
     And my bed at three.
                G#/D# Fm   F#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          G#6 F7
     You’re too sweet for me.
