Intro: 
  Em | Em D/F#
  G | G G D/A Bm

  C | C | D | B
  Em

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

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

  B/F#                   Em
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       D/F#         G
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      Dadd9/A      Bm  C
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      D
   But while in this world,

Chorus:
                  B7
     I think I’ll take
                Em
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     D/F#   G
     And my bed at three.
                D/A   Bm   C
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      D   G
     You’re too sweet for me.

       B7          B7/D# Em
     I take my whiskey neat,
               D/F#
     My coffee black
            G
     And my bed at three.
                D/A   Bm   C
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          D6 B7 B7/D#
     For me.

Instrumental: 
  Em | Em D/F#
  Gadd11 G | Gadd9 Gadd9 D/A Bm7
  C6 C | C | G | B7/F#

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

                        Em
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               D/F#
You treat your mouth
           G
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            D/A
The rest of you
     Bm         Cmaj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   G
I wish I could go along, babe,
             B7/F#
Don’t get me wrong.

  B7/F#
   You know you’re bright
          Em
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     D/F#       G
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              D/A    Bm C
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               D
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                B7
     I’d rather take
                Em
     My whiskey neat,
               D/F#
     My coffee black
            G
     And my bed at three.
                D/A   Bm   C
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          G
     You’re too sweet for me.

       B7/F#           Em
     I take my whiskey neat,
               D/F#
     My coffee black
            G
     And my bed at three.
                D/A   Bm   C
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          D6 B7
     You’re too sweet for me.

     My coffee black
            G
     And my bed at three.
                D/A   Bm   C
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          G  B7/F#
     You’re too sweet for me.
