It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
D G D Em
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
[Chorus]
D G D Em
It's like ra-aaiin on your wedding day
D G D Em
It's a free ride when you've already paid

F C D
And who would've thought ... it figures

C *
And everything blows up in your face
[Verse 3]
D G D Em
A traffic jam when you're already late
D G D Em
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
D G D Em
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
D G
It's meeting the man of my dreams
D Em
And then meeting his beautiful wife ... hmm
D G D Em
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
D G D Em
A little too ironic ... and yeah, I really do think ...
[Chorus]
