[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]
                            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
             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        C
That's not the end of the story, hmm, hmm
