    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 2]
   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 3]
  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
