F# B F# G#m
An old man turned ninety-eight
F# B F# G#m
He won the lottery and died the next day
F# B F# G#m
Itīs a black fly in your Chardonnay
F# B F# G#m
Itīs a death row pardon two minutes too late
F# B F# G#m
Isnīt it ironic ... donīt you think
Chorus:
F# B F# G#m
Itīs like rain on your wedding day
F# B F# G#m
Itīs a free ride when youīve already paid
F# B F# G#m
Itīs the good advice that you just didnīt take
A E F#
Who wouldīve thought ... it figures
F# B F# G#m
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
F# B F# G#m
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
F# B F# G#m
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
F# B
And as the plane crashed down he thought
F# G#m
" Well isnīt this nice ... "
F# B F# G#m
And isnīt it ironic ... donīt you think

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Emaj7 F#
When you think everythingīs okay and everythingīs going right
Emaj7 F#
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
Emaj7
You think everythingīs gone wrong and everything blows up
F#
In your face
F# B F# G#m
A traffic jam when youīre already late
F# B F# G#m
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
F# B F# G#m
Itīs like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
F# B
Itīs meeting the man of my dreams
F# G#m
And then meeting his beautiful wife
F# B F# G#m
And isnīt it ironic ... donīt you think
F# B F# G#m
A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do think ...
