Intro:
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Hi yi yi--- yi yi yi yi yi yi
D/F# G(9) D/F# Em7
An old man turned ninety-eight
D/F# G(9) D/F# Em7
He won the lottery and died the next day
D/F# G(9) D/F# Em7
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
D/F# G(9) D/F# Em7
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
D/F# G(9) D/F# Em7
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think
Chorus:
D G D Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D G D Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D G D Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F C 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 G D Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D G D Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D G D Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F C Dsus
Who would 've thought ... it figures
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
Gmaj7
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
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 /F# G(9) D/F# Em7
A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do think ...
Chorus:
D G D Em7
It's like rain on your wedding day
D G D Em7
It's a free ride when you've already paid
D G D Em7
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
F C Dsus
Who would 've thought ... it figures
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Life has a funny, funny way --- of helping you out
Helping you out
