Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
Hi yi yi--- yi yi yi yi yi yi


D/F# D/F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
An old man turned ninety-eight
D/F# D/F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
He won the lottery and died the next day
D/F# D/F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
D/F# D/F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
D/F# D/F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think

Chorus:
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F F C C Dsus Dsus
Who would 've thought ... it figures


Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
" Well isn't this nice ... "
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think

Chorus:
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F F C C Dsus Dsus
Who would 've thought ... it figures

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
Gmaj7 Gmaj7
In your face

A A traffic jam when you're already late
A A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
D D /F# G G(9) D/F# D/F# Em7 Em7
A A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do think ...

Chorus:
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D D G G D D Em7 Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F F C C Dsus Dsus
Who would 've thought ... it figures

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Life has a funny, funny way --- of helping you out

Helping you out
