  Cm

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

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

  G/D                    Cm
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       Bb/D         D#
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      Bbadd9/F     Gm  G#
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      Bb
   But while in this world,

Chorus:
                  G7
     I think I’ll take
                Cm
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     Bb/D   D#
     And my bed at three.
                Bb/F  Gm   G#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      Bb  D#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       G7          G7/B  Cm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               Bb/D
     My coffee black
            D#
     And my bed at three.
                Bb/F  Gm   G#
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          Bb6 G7 G7/B
     For me.

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

                        Cm
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               Bb/D
You treat your mouth
           D#
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            Bb/F
The rest of you
     Gm         G#maj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   D#
I wish I could go along, babe,
             G7/D
Don’t get me wrong.

  G7/D
   You know you’re bright
          Cm
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     Bb/D       D#
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              Bb/F   Gm G#
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               Bb
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                G7
     I’d rather take
                Cm
     My whiskey neat,
               Bb/D
     My coffee black
            D#
     And my bed at three.
                Bb/F  Gm   G#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          D#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       G7/D            Cm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               Bb/D
     My coffee black
            D#
     And my bed at three.
                Bb/F  Gm   G#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          Bb6 G7
     You’re too sweet for me.

     You’re too sweet for me.
