[ti:Death of a Single Man] [ar:Brad Paisley] [al:Wheelhouse (Deluxe Version)] [by:] [offset:0] [00:06.29]Remember when we got the news [00:11.84]Confirming our worst fears [00:17.15]I said he wouldn't make it six months [00:22.63]And others gave him a year [00:28.19]And sure enough last Saturday [00:33.75]We paid our last respects [00:39.05]He left us here still in this life [00:44.41]And he's gone on to the next [00:49.87]I'd never seen him wear a tie [00:55.29]But he looked so natural almost lifelike [01:00.91]The preacher spoke his mother cried [01:06.21]When he said"Son you may now kiss the bride" [01:11.71]Everyone cheered I thought how odd [01:17.25]I didn't understand [01:21.63]Why with champagne and cake we celebrate [01:27.49]The death of a single man [01:33.74]So many flowers he was so loved [01:39.61]Prior to the bride [01:44.42]As a matter of fact [01:46.60]The maid of honor should be disqualified [01:55.66]To all his friends it's a wake-up call [02:00.84]If it happened to him [02:02.41]It can happen to us all [02:06.34]Nothing says it's over man [02:11.70]Like a bad 80's cover band [02:18.78]How can we dance to My Sharona [02:23.47]At the death of a single man [03:11.64]He was so young [03:14.50]So full of dreams [03:17.20]Before the day he fell [03:22.68]Now he's gone on to a better place [03:28.30]Or possibly to hell [03:33.54]Now here we are seems so unfair [03:38.90]It's poker night and there's one empty chair [03:44.27]So many things we're gonna miss [03:50.08]His happy smile and that great laugh of his [03:55.50]I think of him in the afterwife life [04:01.01]I guess all good things must end [04:05.56]So with Jack and Coke [04:08.73]We'll make a toast [04:11.59]To the death of a single man
