We perform coupled-cluster calculations of the energies and lifetimes of single-particle states around the doubly magic nucleus {sup 16}O based on chiral nucleon-nucleon interactions at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. To incorporate effects from the scattering continuum, we employ a Gamow-Hartree-Fock basis. Our calculations for the J{sup {pi}=}1/2{sup +} proton halo state in {sup 17}F and the 1/2{sup +} state in {sup 17}O agree well with experiment, while the calculated spin-orbit splitting between 5/2{sup +} and 3/2{sup +} states is too small due to the lack of three-nucleon forces. Continuum effects yield a significant amount of additional binding energy for the 1/2{sup +} and 3/2{sup +} states in {sup 17}O and {sup 17}F.
