[Verse 1]
                F
Let me tell you story
                  C
About a boy and a girl
                      F
It's kinda short, kinda boring
                 C
But the end is a whirl
          Am                    G
They were just sixteen when the people were mean
        F  
So they didn't love themselves
        C
And now they're gone
              F
Headstones on lawn

[Verse 2]
               C
And when I was younger
                   F
I knew a boy and a boy
                    C
Best friends with each other
                           F
But always wished they were more
             Am                   G
'Cause they loved one another but never discovered
       F                            C
'Cause they were too afraid of what they'd say
                 F
Moved to different states

[Chorus]
        G                                  F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
        Em                                 F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
      C                             G
But I think that it could work for you and me
N.C          C     F
Just wait and see
                       C      F
It's not the end of the story

[Verse 3]
                  C
Now it's onto the sequel
                F
About me and my friend
                      C                       F
Both our parents were evil, so we both made a bet
      Am                           
If we worked and we saved 
         G
we could both run away and we'd have a better life
     F
And I was right
                  C
I wonder if she's alright

[Chorus]
        G                                  F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
        Em                                 F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
      C                             G
But I think that it could work for you and me
N.C          C     F
Just wait and see
                       C
It's not the end of the story

[Bridge] 
        F                            C                        
And the movie's always running in my head
        F                              C
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
      F                                 C
And I hope that they all get their happy end
       F
In the end

[Chorus]
        G                                  F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
        Em                                 F
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
      C                            G
But I think that it could work for you and me
N.C          C    F
Just wait and see
                       C       F    C
It's not the end of the story, hmm, hmm
