Too Sweet[C] - Hozier
Intro: Am C F G E7
Verse 1:
Am C
It can't be said I'm an early bird
F
It's ten o'clock before I say a word
G
Baby, I can never tell
E7
How do you sleep so well?
Am
You keep telling me to live right
C
To go to bed before the daylight
F
But then you wake up for the sunrise
G
You know you don't gotta pretend
E7
Baby, now and then
Am
Don't you just wanna wake up
Dark as a lake
C
Smelling like a bonfire
Lost in a haze?
F
If you're drunk on life, babe
I think it's great
G
But while in this world
Chorus: x 2
E7 Am
I think I'll take my whiskey neat
C
My coffee black and my bed at three
F
You're too sweet for me
C
You're too sweet for me
Interlude: Am C F G E7
Verse 2:
Am
I aim low
C
I aim true, and the ground's where I go
F
I work late where I'm free from the phone
And the job gets done
G E7
But you worry some, I know
Am
But who wants to live forever, babe
C
You treat your mouth as if it's Heaven's gate
F
The rest of you like you're the TSB
G
I wish I could go along
E7
Babe, don't get me wrong
Am
You know you're bright as the morning
As soft as the rain
C
Pretty as a vine
As sweet as a grape
F
If you can sit in a barrel
Maybe I'll wait
G
Until that day
Chorus: x2

Chorus:
E7 Am
I take my whiskey neat

My coffee black and my bed at three

You're too sweet for me
