This song is just a song about a bunch of things that happened to me and my friends
growing up that we could never really move on from, you know?
They were just stories from my life that I never wanted to forget and things that just
[Bb] stuck with me for the rest of my life.
So this is a song that I wrote called The Story.
[C]
[F]
[C]
[F]
Let me tell [C] you a story about a boy and [F] a girl.
It's kinda short, kinda [C] boring.
But the end is [F] a word, girl.
They [E] were just 16 when the [G] people were mean so [F] they didn't love themselves.
And now [C] they're gone.
Headstones on [F] a lot.
And when [C] I was younger, I knew a boy and [F] a boy.
Best friends with [C] each other, but always wished they [F] were more.
Cause [Am] they loved one another [G] but never discovered [F] cause they were too afraid of what [C] they'd
say about the different [F]
states.
Oh, [G]
and I'm afraid that's just the way [F] the world works.
It [C] ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it [G] ain't sweetie.
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the [F] way the world works.
But [C] I think that it could work for [G] you and me.
[C] Just wait and see.
[F]
It's not the end [C] of the story.
[F]
Now it's on to the [C] sequel.
About me [F] and my friend.
Both our [C] parents were evil.
So we both [F] made a bet.
If [Am] we worked and we saved, we could [G] both run away [F] and we'd have a better [C] life.
And I was
I wonder if she's [F] alright.
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the way [F] the world works.
It [C] ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it [G] ain't sweetie.
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the way the [F] world works.
But I [C] think that it could work for you [G] and me.
Just [C] wait and see.
[F]
It's not the end of [C] the story.
[F]
[C]
And the movie's always running in my head.
All the [F]
people, all the lovers, all [C] my friends.
And [F] I hope that they all get their [C] happy end.
In [F] the end.
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the [F] way the world works.
It [C] ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it [G] ain't sweet.
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the way [F] the world works.
