[Intro]
C  Em   G7

[Verse 1]
C                 C/B
Kissin' under the mistletoe
C/Bb                 A7
 Holdin' hands while walkin'
               Dm7
 through the snow
                            G7
I wish I knew what that was like,
                     G7/F
 maybe next year, I won't cry
C                  C/B
 The mall makes me so upset
C/Bb               A7
 Pretty girls with all
               Dm7
their cute boyfriends
                         G7
I wanna know what that's like,
 maybe next year,
        G7/F
 I'll get it right

[Pre-Chorus]
Em              F
Prayin' for the love you
see in the movies
Em             G7         G
Not askin' for much, just one

[Chorus]
C      G/B              Am
 Maybe it's the time of year
           Em/G             F
And how it brings up what I fear
               G
I'm by myself, wishin'
I had someone else
C          G/B           Am
 Wish that day would go away
     Em/G          F
So I never have to facе
 what date it is
       Fm
'Cause I hate bеin'
                      C
single on the twenty-fifth

[Verse 2]
C               C/B
 Everyone has a baby now
C/Bb                A7
 They're married or got
             Dm7
engaged somehow
                           G7
I know that love, it takes time,
                     G7/F
 don't wanna wait my whole life

[Pre-Chorus]
Em              F
Prayin' for the love
you see in the movies
Em             G7         G
Not askin' for much, just one

How to play Single On The 25Th: key, chords and progression

These are Single On The 25Th chords by Lauren Spencer-Smith on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Single On The 25Th by Lauren Spencer-Smith is built around C major (no sharps or flats), with 15 chords in all: C, Em, G7, C/B, C/Bb, A7, Dm7, G7/F, F, G, G/B and Am and 3 more.

Listen for C – G/B – Am – Em/G (I – V – vi – iii in C major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – mi. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: F, Fm and Fadd9 are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
