Intro: 
  C#m | C#m B/D#
  E | E E B/F# G#m

  A | A | B | G#
  C#m

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

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

  G#/D#                  C#m
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       B/D#         E
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      Badd9/F#     G#m A
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      B
   But while in this world,

Chorus:
                  G#7
     I think I’ll take
                C#m
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     B/D#   E
     And my bed at three.
                B/F#  G#m  A
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      B   E
     You’re too sweet for me.

       G#7         G#7/C C#m
     I take my whiskey neat,
               B/D#
     My coffee black
            E
     And my bed at three.
                B/F#  G#m  A
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          B6 G#7 G#7/C
     For me.

Instrumental: 
  C#m | C#m B/D#
  Eadd11 E | Eadd9 Eadd9 B/F# G#m7
  A6 A | A | E | G#7/D#

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

                        C#m
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               B/D#
You treat your mouth
           E
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            B/F#
The rest of you
     G#m        Amaj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   E
I wish I could go along, babe,
             G#7/D#
Don’t get me wrong.

  G#7/D#
   You know you’re bright
          C#m
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     B/D#       E
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              B/F#   G#m A
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               B
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                G#7
     I’d rather take
                C#m
     My whiskey neat,
               B/D#
     My coffee black
            E
     And my bed at three.
                B/F#  G#m  A
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          E
     You’re too sweet for me.

       G#7/D#          C#m
     I take my whiskey neat,
               B/D#
     My coffee black
            E
     And my bed at three.
                B/F#  G#m  A
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          B6 G#7
     You’re too sweet for me.

     I take my whiskey neat,
               B/D#
     My coffee black
            E
     And my bed at three.
                B/F#  G#m  A
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          E  G#7/D#
     You’re too sweet for me.
