[Verse 1]
Em          D/F#        G         
It can't be said I'm an early bird
           Am       C/B   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 telling me to live right
         D/F#           G       
To go to bed before the daylight
             Am      C/B     C      
But then you wake up for the sunrise
                            G   
You know you don't gotta pretend
              B7/F#
Baby, now and then

[Pre-Chorus 1]
                     Em                      
Don't you just wanna wake up, dark as a lake?
    D/F#        G                       
Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
   Am           C/B C                            
If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great
                  D    
But while in this world

[Chorus]
             B7              Em  
I think I'll take my whiskey neat
                D/F#   G           
My coffee black and my bed at three
           Am    C/B C 
You're too sweet for me
                     G 
You're too sweet for me
  B7              Em  
I take my whiskey neat
                D/F#   G           
My coffee black and my bed at three
           Am    C/B C 
You're too sweet for me
                     D  B7
You're too sweet for meeee

[Break]
         Em         
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    D/F#    G          
Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
    Am  C/B C          
Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
            G          B7/F#
Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
      Em 
I aim low
                   D/F#             G 
I aim true and the ground's where I go
                      Am   C/B      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?
               D/F#             G            
You treat your mouth as if it's Heaven's gate
            Am       C/B        C  
The rest of you like you're the TSA
                   G                        B7/F#
I wish I could go along, babe, don't get me wrong

[Pre-Chorus 2]
                              Em                          
You know you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain
    D/F#    G                        
Pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape
           Am  C/B  C                      
If you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait
           D  
Until that day

[Chorus]
           B7              Em  
I'd rather take my whiskey neat
          D/F#         G           
My coffee black and my bed at three
           Am    C/B C 
You're too sweet for me
                     G 
You're too sweet for me
  B7              Em  
I take my whiskey neat
          D/F#         G           
My coffee black and my bed at three
           Am    C/B C 
You're too sweet for me
                     D  B7
You're too sweet for meeee
