[Verse]
D G D Em An old man turned ninety-eight
D G He won the lottery and
D Em
Died the next day
D G D Em It´s a black fly in your Chardonnay
D G It´s a death row pardon
D Em
Two minutes too late
D G D Em Isn´t it ironic ... don´t you think [Chorus]
D G D Em It´s like rain on your wedding day
D G It´s a free ride when
D Em
You´ve already paid
D G It´s the good advice that
D Em
You just didn´t take
F C D Who would´ve thought ... it figures
[Verse] D G D Em Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
D G He packed his suitcase and
D Em
kissed his kids good-bye
D He waited his whole damn
G D Em
Life to take that flight
D G And as the plane crashed down he thought
D Em " Well isn´t this nice ... "
D G D And isn´t it ironic ...
Em
Don´t you think [Chorus]
D G D Em It´s like rain on your wedding day
D G It´s a free ride when
D Em
You´ve already paid
D G It´s the good advice that
D Em
You just didn´t take

Helping you out when
You think everything´s gone wrong
Cmaj7
And everything blows up
Gmaj7/D In your face [Verse]
D G A traffic jam when
D Em
You´re already late
D G A no-smoking sign on
D Em
Your cigarette break
D G It´s like ten thousand spoons when
D Em
All you need is a knife
D G It´s meeting the man of my dreams
D Em And then meeting his beautiful wife
D G D And isn´t it ironic ...
Em
Don´t you think
D G A little too ironic ... and yeah
D Em
I really do think ... [Chorus]
D G D Em It´s like rain on your wedding day
D G It´s a free ride when
D Em
You´ve already paid
D G It´s the good advice that
D Em
You just didn´t take
F C D Who would´ve thought ... it figures [Outro] Cmaj7 Life has a funny way of
D

D Cmaj7
Of helping you out
