Verse 1

[C]

Let me tell you a story

[F]

About a boy and a girl

[C]

It’s kinda short kinda boring

[F]

But the end is a whirl

[Am]

They were just 16

[G]

When the people were mean

[F]

So they didn’t love themselves

[C]

Now they’re gone

[F]

Headstones on a lawn

Verse 2

[C]

When I was younger

[F]

I knew a boy and a boy

[C]

Best friends with each other

[F]

But always wished they were more

[Am]

‘Cause they loved one another

[G] [F]

But never discovered ‘cause they were too afraid

[C]

Of what they’d say

[F]

Moved to different states

Chorus

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

But I think that it could work for you and me

N.C [C] [F]

Just wait and see

[C] [F]

It’s not the end of the story

Verse 3

[C]

Now it's on to the sequel

[F]

About me and my friend

[C]

See, both our parents were evil

[F]

So we both made a bet

[Am]

If we worked till we saved

[G]

We could both run away

[F]

And we’d have a better life

[C]

And I was right

[F]

I wonder if she’s alright

Chorus

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

But I think that it could work for you and me

N.C. [C] [F]

Just wait and see

[C] [F] [C]

It’s not the end of the story

Bridge

[F] [C]

And the movie’s always running in my head

[F] [C]

All the people, all the lovers, all my friends

[F] [C]

And I hope that they’ll all get their happy end

[F]

In the end

Chorus

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet

[Em7] [F]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works

[C] [G6]

But I think that it could work for you and me

N.C. [C] [F]

Just wait and see

[C] [F] [C]

It’s not the end of the story
