[Intro] Em  G  C  D  B7

Em                      G
It can't be said I'm an early bird
                          C
It's ten o'clock before I say a word
                  D
Baby, I can never tell
                    B7
How do you sleep so well
                       Em
You keep tellin' me to live right
                        G
To go to bed before the daylight
                             C
But then you wake up for the sunrise
                             D
You know you don't gotta pretend
              B7
Baby, now and then

                     Em
Don't you just wanna wake up, dark as a lake
                G
Smellin' like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
                   C
If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great
                  D
But while in this world

             B7              Em
I think I'll take my whiskey neat
                       G
My coffee black and my bed at three
                      C
You're too sweet for me
                      D
You're too sweet for me
  B7              Em
I take my whiskey neat
                       G
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     C
You're too sweet for me
                     D
You're too sweet for me

Em         G         C
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
   D          B7
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

      Em
I aim low
                                      G
I aim true and the ground is where I go
                                    C
I work late where I'm free from the phone

And the job gets done
        D             B7
But you worry some, I know
                      Em
But who wants to live forever, babe?
                                G
You treat your mouth as if it's heaven's gate
                                C
The rest of you like you're the TSA
                  D
I wish I could go along
                   B7
Babe, don't get me wrong

                              Em
You know you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain
            G
Pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape
                    C
If you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait
            D
Until that day

            B7             Em
I'd rather take my whiskey neat
                        G
My coffee black and my bed at three
                      C
You're too sweet for me
                      G
You're too sweet for me
  B7              Em
I take my whiskey neat
                        G
My coffee black and my bed at three
                      C
You're too sweet for me
                      G
You're too sweet for me

Em         G         C
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
   D          B7
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Em         G         C
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
   D          B7
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

  B7              Em
I take my whiskey neat
                       G
My coffee black and my bed at three
                      C
You're too sweet for me
                      D      B7     Em
You're too sweet for me
