[Intro]
C Fmaj7 x2
[Verse 1]
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]

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
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
