[Strophe]
Em                         G 
   It can't be said I'm an early bird
 
   It can't be said I'm an early bird 
                          C 
It's ten o'clock before I say a word
 
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 
                        G 
To go to bed before the daylight 
                             C 
But then you wake up for the sunrise
 
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 
Smelling 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
[Refrain]
             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 
                     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  B7 
You're too sweet for me

[Strophe]
       Em 
I aim low 
                                    
I aim true, and the ground's where I
 G 
 go 
I aim true, and the ground's where I go 
                                   
I work late where I'm free from the
 C 
 phone 
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 
                               
You treat your mouth as if it's
 G 
 Heaven's gate 
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
 
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
[Refrain]
           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  B7 
You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me
