Ironic
Alanis Morisette
Capo IV
D G D Em
An old man turned ninety-eight
D G D Em
He won the lottery and died the next day
D G D Em
It´s a black fly in your Chardonnay
D G D Em
It´s a death row pardon 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 D Em
It´s a free ride when you´ve already paid
D G D Em
It´s the good advice that you just didn´t take
F C D
Who would´ve thought, it figures
D G D Em
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
D G D Em
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
D G D Em
He waited his whole damn 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 Em
Isn´t it ironic, don´t you think
CHORUS
Cmaj7 D
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 D
When you think everything´s okay and everything´s going right
Cmaj7 D
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
Cmaj7
You think everything´s gone wrong and everything blows up
D
In your face
D G D Em
A traffic jam when you´re already late
D G D Em
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
D G D Em
It´s like ten thousand spoons when 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 Em
Isn´t it ironic, don´t you think
D G D Em
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think

CHORUS
Cmaj7
Life has a funny way
D
Of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7
Life has a funny, funny way
D Cmaj7
Of helping you out
