Ironic by Alanis Morisette
Capo 4th fret
[Verse]
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
[Verse]
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
And 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
[Bridge]
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
[Verse]
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
And isn´t it ironic ... don´t you think
D G D Em
A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do 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
[Outro]
Cmaj7 D
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Cmaj7 D Cmaj7
Life has a funny, funny way --- of helping you out
Helping you out
