Death of a single man (B.Paisley) [Intro] E G#m7 A7 B7

Remem^Eber ^G#m7when we ^F#mgot the^B news Conf^Eirming our ^C#7worst f^F#mears ^B

I sai^Ed he wo^Fdimuldn’t make it s^Aix m^Amonths And o^Ethers gave h^Bim a y^Eear ^B

And sure e^G#m7nough l^F#mast Sat^Burday We p^Eaid our la^C#7st re^F#mspects^B

He le^Eft us h^Fdimere still in th^Ais li^Amfe And he’s^E gone o^Bn to the ^Enext ^G#m

I^A’d never ^Amseen hi^G#m wear a tie But he l^C#mooked so natural, a^F#lmost lifelike ^G#

^AThe preacher spoke, his ^Ammother ^G#cried ^C#mWhen he said “Son, you may n^F#ow kiss the b^Bride”

^EEveryone ch^G#m7eered, I^F#m thought how o^Bdd ^EI didn’t ^C#7understa^F#mnd ^B

[Chorus]

^EWhy with champ^Fdimagne and cake we c^Aeleb^Amrate ^EThe death of a si^Bngle m^Ean

So many fl^G#m7owers, ^F#mhe was so lo^Bved ^EPrior ^C#7to the b^F#mride ^B

As^E a matter of f^Fdimact ,the ma^Aid of ^Amhonor ^Eshould be disqual^Bified ^E

To^A all his f^Amriends, it’^G#s a wake-up call I^C#mf it happened to him

It can hap^F#pen to us all ^G# N^Aothing s^Amays it’s over^G# man

L^C#mike a bad 80’s co^F#ver b^Band

[Chorus]

^EHow can^Fdim we dance to ^AMy Sharo^Amna ^EAt the death of a single man ^B ^E

^EHe was so^G#m7 young, so ^F#mfull of dre^Bams ^EBefore th^C#7e day he fell ^F#m ^B

^ENow he’^Fdims gone on to a b^Aetter ^Amplace ^EOr possib^Bly to ^Ehell

No^Aw here w^Ame are, s^G#eems so unfair ^F#It’s poker night and there’s ^G#one empty chair

S^Ao many t^Amhings w^G#e’re gonna miss ^C#mHis happy smile and that g^F#reat laugh of h^Bis

^EI think o^G#m7f him in^F#m the afterw^Bife, life ^EI guess all good ^C#7things ^F#mmust e^Bnd

[Chorus]

^ESo with Jack and^Fdim Coke, we’ll mak^Ae a to^Amast ^ETo the death of a sin^Bgle ma^En
