                  C                       Fmaj7
Let me tell you a story about a boy and a girl

                        C                      Fmaj7
It's kinda short, kinda boring, but the end is a whirl

          Am                   G
They were just sixteen when the people were mean

        Fmaj7                                   C
So they didn't love themselves, and now they're gone

                Fmaj7
Headstones on a lawn
[Verse 2]
               C                           Fmaj7
And when I was younger, I knew a boy and a boy

                       C                                  Fmaj7
Best friends with each other, but always wished they were more

            Am                     G      
'Cause they loved one another, but never discovered

       Fmaj7                               C
'Cause they were too afraid of what they'd say

                   Fmaj7
Moved to different states
[Chorus]
        G                                  Fmaj7
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works

         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet

        Em                                 Fmaj7
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works

      C                                    G
But I think that it could work for you and me

N.C           C  Fmaj7
Just wait and see

                        C    Fmaj7
It's not the end of the story
[Verse 3]
                   C                      Fmaj7
Now it's on to the sequel about me and my friend

                      C                       Fmaj7
Both our parents were evil, so we both made a bet

      Am                            G
If we worked and we saved, we could both run away

         Fmaj7                         C
And we'd have a better life, and I was right

                  Fmaj7
I wonder if she's alright
[Chorus]
         G                                 Fmaj7
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works

         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet

        Em                                 Fmaj7
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works

      C                                    G
But I think that it could work for you and me

 N.C          C   Fmaj7
Just wait and see

                        C     Fmaj7
It's not the end of the story

C
Okay
[Bridge]
        Fmaj7                        C
And the movie's always runnin' in my head

        Fmaj7                          C
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends

      Fmaj7                              C
And I hope that they all get their happy end

       Fmaj7
In the end
[Chorus]
        G                                  Fmaj7
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works

         C                                G
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet

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

But I think that it could work for you and me

N.C           C   Fmaj7
Just wait and see

                          C     Fmaj7  C
That's not the end of the story,hmm,hmm
