E Emaj7 E B G#m7 Emaj7 E
■ ■     ■ ■ ■    ■     ■
   F#  B   F#     G#m7       
An old man turned ninetyeight
F#         B           F#       G#m7    
He won the lottery and died the next day
     F# C#sus4    F#      G#m7      
It's a  black fly in your Chardonnay
     F#      B          F#          G#m7    
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
                    F#        B    
And isn't it ironic don't you think


[Chorus]
F# G#m           F#   B       F#      G#m
■  ■   It's like rain on your wedding day
            F#   B           F#      G#m 
It's a free ride when you've already paid
              F#     B        F#   G#m        
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
    A   E                   F#     
And who would've thought it figures


[Verse]
                B     A#m       G#m
Mr Play It Safe ■ was afraid to fly
              A#m      B              A#m  G#m    
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
              A#m   A#m7 B       A#m  G#m7       
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
           F#            B              
And as the plane crashed down he thought
F#              G#m7
Well isn't this nice
             F#     B F# G#m                
And isn't it ironic ■ ■  ■   don't you think


[Chorus]
F#   B                 F#      G#m
It's like rain on your wedding day
            F#   B    F#             G#m 
It's a free ride when you've already paid
              F#     B        F#   G#m        
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
A       E                   F#     
And who would've thought it figures


[Bridge]
E               Emaj7                    B     
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
                                 Emaj7                       
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
B   Emaj7                               B  
And life has a funny way of helping you out
                                       Emaj7                  
When you think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
Emaj7       
In your face


[Verse]
B F# B                       F#      G#m 
A ■  traffic jam when you're already late
  F#        B            F#        G#m

          F#  B                            D#m  G#m7      
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
F#                   B           
It's meeting the man of my dreams
         F#                    G#m7
And then meeting his beautiful wife
             F#     B           F#   
And isn't it ironic ■ don't you think
G#m7     F#         B
A little too ironic ■
           F#             
And yeah I really do think


[Chorus]
G#m7      F#   B         F#          G#m
It's like rain ■ on your wedding day ■  
            F#   B           F#      G#m     
It's a free ride when you've already ■   paid
     F#       B               F#          G#m 
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
A                E          F#      E Emaj7 B
And who would've thought it figures ■ ■     ■
