G C G Am (basica transicao...)
an old man turned ninety-eight
G C G Am
he won the lottery and died the next day
it's a black fly in your chardonnay
it's a death row pardon two minutes to late
isn't it ironic... don't you think

<> it's like rain on your wedding day
it's a free ride when you've already paid
it's the good advice that you just didn't take
Bb F G
who would have 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 just to take that flight
and as the plane crashed down he thouht "well isn't this nice..."
and isn't it ironic... don't you think?

well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
F G
when you think everything is okay and everything's going right
F G
and life has a funny way of helping you out when
F
you think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face
a traffic jam when you are 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 like meeting the man of my dreams then meeting his beautiful wife
and isn't it ironic... don't you think?
a little too ironic... and yeah i really do think...
