An old man turned ninetyeight
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 too late
And isn't it ironic don't you think
It's like raDin Gon your Dwedding Emday
It's a free ride Gwhen you've Dalready Empaid
It's the good advice Gthat you Djust didn't Emtake
and FWho would've Cthought, it figuresD Dsus4
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
And isn't it ironic, don't you think
It's like raDin Gon your Dwedding Emday
It's a free riDde when you've Dalready Empaid
It's the good advice Gthat you Djust didn't Emtake
and FWho would've Cthought, it figuresD Dsus4
Well, Cmaj7life has a funny way of sneaking up on D6add11you
When you think everything's okay and Cmaj7everything's going rightCadd9
And Cmaj7life has a funny way helping you out D6add11when
You think everything's gone wrong and Cmaj7everything blows up
A traffic jam when you're already late
A nosmoking 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
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think
It's like raDin Gon your Dwedding Emday
It's a free riDde Gwhen you've Dalready Empaid
It's the good advice Gthat you Djust didn't Emtake
and FWho would've Cthought, it figuresD Dsus4
