Strumming

Tune your guitar down a full step down from standard (EADGBE) to (DGCFAD)
 
For my own sanity I'll write the chord shapes as if it's still in standard, relative to how the shape
would be when it's being played with no capo. But in reality the chords were transposed -2.

[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
  F                G
Baby, I can never tell
 G                   E
How do you sleep so well?
 
(You can start strumming here)
 
 G                      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
                            C
You know you don't gotta pretend
               E7
Baby, now and then
                         Am
Don't you just wanna wake up
           Am
Dark as a lake
                  C
Smelling like a bonfire
           C
Lost in a haze?
                          F
If you're drunk on life, babe
               F
I think it's great
                   G
But while in this world
              E7
I think I'll take my whiskey
 
 
[Chorus]
 Am
Neat
                        C
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     F
You're too sweet for me
                     C
You're too sweet for me
   E7              Am
I take my whiskey neat
                        C
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     F
You're too sweet for me
                     C E7
You're too sweet for me
 
 
[Instrumental bassline]
Am C F C 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 TSA
                         C
I wish that I could go along
                    E7
Babe, don't get me wrong
                                Am
You know you're bright as the morning
                 Am
As soft as the rain
           C
Pretty as a vine
               C
As sweet as a grape
                      F
If you can sit in a barrel
            F
Maybe I'll wait
            G
Until that day
            E7
I'd rather take my whiskey
 
 
[Chorus]
Am
Neat
                        C
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     F
You're too sweet for me
                     C
You're too sweet for me
   E7              Am
I take my whiskey neat
                        C
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     F
You're too sweet for me
                     C E7
You're too sweet for me
 
            Am
Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh
             C
Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh
              F
Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh oh
         C  E7
Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Am
Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh
             C
Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh
         F
Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh oh
         C
Oh-oh-oh-oh
 
   E7              Am
I take my whiskey neat
                        C
My coffee black and my bed at three
                     F
You're too sweet for me
                     C  E7
You're too sweet for me
