  Fm

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

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

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

Chorus:
                  C7
     I think I’ll take
                Fm
     My whiskey neat,
     My coffee black
     D#/G   G#
     And my bed at three.
                D#/Bb Cm   C#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                      D#  G#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       C7          C7/E  Fm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               D#/G
     My coffee black
            G#
     And my bed at three.
                D#/Bb Cm   C#
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          D#6 C7 C7/E
     For me.

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

                        Fm
But who wants to live forever, babe?
               D#/G
You treat your mouth
           G#
As if it’s heaven’s gate,
            D#/Bb
The rest of you
     Cm         C#maj
Like you’re the TSA.
                   G#
I wish I could go along, babe,
             C7/G
Don’t get me wrong.

  C7/G
   You know you’re bright
          Fm
   As the morning,
   As soft as the rain,
     D#/G       G#
   Pretty as a vine,
   As sweet as a grape.
              D#/Bb  Cm C#
   If you can sit in a barrel,
   Maybe I’ll wait
               D#
   Until that day.

Chorus:
                C7
     I’d rather take
                Fm
     My whiskey neat,
               D#/G
     My coffee black
            G#
     And my bed at three.
                D#/Bb Cm   C#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          G#
     You’re too sweet for me.

       C7/G            Fm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               D#/G
     My coffee black
            G#
     And my bed at three.
                D#/Bb Cm   C#
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          D#6 C7
     You’re too sweet for me.
