[Verse 1]
People say [A]They're
jealous of me
Asking all the [G]time how I can be so lucky
[A]And how they wish they'd
never kissed
The single life goodbye
And why
[G]They struggle every day
To keep from straying
They [A]want my life
[E]They call and me a crafty little devil
[G]They think I've got it made
That [A]my streets are
paved and golden
[F#m]And I bath [G]in sun rays every
[D]day
And everybody tell [F#m]me
Not to be [Bm]afraid[G][Gm][D]
To gather all [F#m]the harvest
That the good [D]Lord [Gm]made[F#m]
[E]Single life is not what it ap[A]pears to [E]be
Hope it's not how fate has mapped my [A]life for
[C#m]me[D][A][Bm][A][D][A]
[Bm][A]
When you sleep
You sleep alone
And you can [G]roll right to the
centre of the bed
And you [A]don't have to have strength
For anybody else
And you [G]never have to shout
To defend yourself
You can [A]eat [E]cake and even ice cream
And you can [G]stay out really late
And you can [A]bring home someone
[F#m]To make y[A]ou feel special
But it's [G]for a few hours
Then they go [D]away
And everybody tell [F#m]me
Not to be [Bm]afraid[G][Gm][D]
To gather all the [F#m]harvest
That the good [Bm]Lord
[D]made[Gm][F#m]
[E]Single life is not what it ap
[A]pears to [C#m]be[E]
Hope it's not how fate has
mapped my [A]life for [C#m]me[E]
Single life is not what it
ap[A]pears to [C#m]be[E]
Hope it's not how fate has mapped
my [A]life for [C#m]me[A][C]
When I see two [D]people
They look crazy [Bm]in love
A little [E]bit of heaven
Shining in their [C]eyes
Free and single sounds
[D]exciting and it can be[E]
With no warning a great adventure calls
Hitch a [C#m]ride
[C]Every time I think I've
found that [D]someone[C#m]
[E]I awa[Eaug]ke[C][E][Em][E]
Single life is not what it ap[A]pears to [E]be
Hope it's not how fate has
mapped my life [A]for [E]me
Single life is not what it
appears [A]to [E]be
Hope it's not how fate has
mapped my [A]life for [C#m]me
[E]Single life is not what it [A]appears [E]to be
Hope it's not how fate has mapped
[A]my life for [C#m]me
Don't obsess
[E]But I'm looking real hard
It's a spice that I'm missing
From the ingredients
I [E]got freedom
And the money that I work for every day
Could [A]buy me a colour
But it won't buy [E]me a body
I can feel the language
The language of love
That's so universal
Everybody gets to speak it
When they fall in love
That's the end of lonely nights
And
[E]Single life
