Intro: 
  Bm | Bm A/C#
  D | D D A/E F#m

  G | G | A | F#
  Bm

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

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

  F#/C#                  Bm
   Don’t you just wanna wake up,
   Dark as a lake?
       A/C#         D
   Smelling like a bonfire,
   Lost in a haze?
      Aadd9/E      F#m G
   If you’re drunk on life, babe,
   I think it’s great,
                      A
   But while in this world,

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

       F#7         F#7/Bb Bm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               A/C#
     My coffee black
            D
     And my bed at three.
                A/E   F#m  G
     You’re too sweet for me,
     You’re too sweet
          A6 F#7 F#7/Bb
     For me.

Instrumental: 
  Bm | Bm A/C#
  Dadd11 D | Dadd9 Dadd9 A/E F#m7
  G6 G | G | D | F#7/C#

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

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

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

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

       F#7/C#          Bm
     I take my whiskey neat,
               A/C#
     My coffee black
            D
     And my bed at three.
                A/E   F#m  G
     You’re too sweet for me,
                          A6 F#7
     You’re too sweet for me.

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