Intro:
Cadd9 Dadd9 

Cadd9           

D/F# Gadd9 D/F#        Em7    
An old man turned ninety-eight
        D/F#  Gadd9   D/F#           Em7
He won the lottery and died the next day
      D/F#   Gadd9  D/F#       Em7 
It's a black fly in your chardonnay
       D/F#      Gadd9      D/F#        Em7 
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
         D/F# Gadd9          D/F#       Em7
Isn't it ironic... don't you think         

Chorus:

         D/F# G    D/F#        Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
           D/F# G            D/F#    Em7 
It's a free ride when you've already paid
              D/F# G          D/F#        Em7 
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
    Fm           Cadd9           D/F# 
And who would've thought... it figures

    D/F# Gadd9         D/F#     Em7
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly 
              D/F# Gadd9         
He packed his suitcase and kissed
    D/F#      Em7
his kids good-bye
              D/F#       Gadd9   D/F#      Em7   
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
           D/F#         Gadd9           
And as the plane crashed down he thought
     D/F#        Em7
well isn't this nice
               D/F# Gadd9           D/F#    Em7
And Isn't this ironic ... don't you think?     

Repeat Chorus

     Cadd9                               Dadd9 
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
                       Dadd9  
When you think everything's ok
    Cadd9               Dadd9
and everythings going right  
Dadd9         Cadd9               
And yeah well life has a funny way
               Dadd9   
of helping you out when
                        Dadd9        
You think evertyhing's gone wrong and
Cadd9                          
everthing blows up in your face

Cadd9           

  D/F#    Gadd9           D/F#     Em7
A traffic jam when you're already late
      D/F#   Gadd9        D/F#      Em7  
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
          D/F#   Gadd9               D/F#      Em7  
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
     D/F#                  Gadd9 
It's meeting the man of my dreams
                 D/F#     Em7  
then meeting his beautiful wife
             D/F# Gadd9          D/F#   Em7
And isn't it ironic... don't you think     
             D/F# Gadd9           D/F#     Em7     
A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...

Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
D/F# D/F# Cadd9 Cadd9 x4

Outro:
Cadd9 Dadd9 Dadd9 Cadd9 x2
