Death of a Single Man Brad Paisley
(Intro)
[E] [G#m7] [A7] [B7]
Remem[E]ber [G#m7]when we [F#m]got the[B] news
Conf[E]irming our [C#7]worst f[F#m]ears[B]
I sai[E]d he wo[Fdim]uldn't make it s[A]ix m[Am]onths
And o[E]thers gave h[B]im a y[E]ear[B]
And sure e[G#m7]nough l[F#m]ast Sat[B]urday
We p[E]aid our la[C#7]st re[F#m]spects[B]
He le[E]ft us h[Fdim]ere still in th[A]is li[Am]fe
And he's[E] gone o[B]n to the [E]next[G#m]
I[A]'d never [Am]seen hi[G#]m wear a tie
But he l[C#m]ooked so natural, a[F#]lmost lifelike[G#]
[A]The preacher spoke, his [Am]mother [G#]cried
[C#m]When he said 'Son, you may n[F#]ow kiss the b[B]ride'
[E]Everyone ch[G#m7]eered, I[F#m] thought how o[B]dd
[E]I didn't [C#7]understa[F#m]nd[B]
(Chorus)
[E]Why with champ[Fdim]agne and cake we c[A]eleb[Am]rate
[E]The death of a si[B]ngle m[E]an
So many fl[G#m7]owers, [F#m]he was so lo[B]ved
[E]Prior [C#7]to the b[F#m]ride[B]
As[E] a matter of f[Fdim]act ,the ma[A]id of [Am]honor
[E]should be disqual[B]ified[E]
To[A] all his f[Am]riends, it'[G#]s a wake-up call
I[C#m]f it happened to him
It can hap[F#]pen to us all[G#]
N[A]othing s[Am]ays it's over[G#] man
L[C#m]ike a bad 80's co[F#]ver b[B]and
(Chorus)
[E]How can[Fdim] we dance to [A]My Sharo[Am]na
[E]At the death of a single man[B] [E]
[E]He was so[G#m7] young, so [F#m]full of dre[B]ams
[E]Before th[C#7]e day he fell[F#m] [B]
[E]Now he'[Fdim]s gone on to a b[A]etter [Am]place
[E]Or possib[B]ly to [E]hell
No[A]w here w[Am]e are, s[G#]eems so unfair
[F#]It's poker night and there's [G#]one empty chair
S[A]o many t[Am]hings w[G#]e're gonna miss
[C#m]His happy smile and that g[F#]reat laugh of h[B]is
[E]I think o[G#m7]f him in[F#m] the afterw[B]ife, life
[E]I guess all good [C#7]things [F#m]must e[B]nd
(Chorus)
[E]So with Jack and[Fdim] Coke, we'll mak[A]e a to[Am]ast
[E]To the death of a sin[B]gle ma[E]n
