[Am]
Let me tell you [C] a story, about a boy [D] and a girl
It's kinda short, [C] kinda boring, but the end [D] is a whirl
[Am] They were just 16, [Bm] and the people were mean
[C] So they didn't love themselves, and now they're gone
Headstones [D] on, [F]
and when [C] I was younger
I knew a boy [D] and a boy, best friends [C] with each other
But I always wished [F] there were more
[Am] Cause they loved one another, [G] but never [C] discovered
Cause they were too afraid of what they'd say
Moved to different states
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the [C] way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, [G] it ain't sweet
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the [C] way the world works
But I think that it could work for you [G] and me
Just [C] wait and see
It's [F]
not the [C] end of the story
[F]
Now it's [C] on to the sequel, about me [F] and my friend
Both our [C] parents were evil, so we [F] both made a bet
[Am] If we worked and we [G] saved, we could both run away
[F] And we'd have a better life
And [C] I was right
I wonder [F] if she's alright
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the [C] way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, [G] it ain't sweet
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid that's just the [F] way the world works
[C] But I think that it could work for [G] you and me
Just [C] wait and see
It's [F]
not the [C] end of the story
[F]
[C] [F] And the movie's always running [C] in my head
[F] All the people, all the lovers, [C] all my friends
[F] And I hope that they all get their [C] happy end
[F] Amen
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid that's just [F] the way the world works
[C] It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, [G] it ain't sweet
[Em] Oh, and I'm afraid that's just [F] the way the world works
[C] But I think that it could work [G] for you and me
