Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
" Well isn?t this nice ... "
And isn?t it ironic ... don?t you think

Chorus:
         D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)       D (xx0232@1)     Em7

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
                                    Cmaj7 (x32000@1)                   D6?
When you think everything?s okay and everything?s going right 
     Cmaj7 (x32000@1)                            D6?
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
                                       Cmaj7 (x32000@1)                D6?
You think everything?s gone wrong and everything blows up
             D**
In your face

A traffic jam when you?re already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It?s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It?s meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn?t it ironic ... don?t you think
        D (xx0232@1) /F# G(9 (320003@1)fr.)                    D/F# (200232@1)Em7
A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do think ...
