[Intro]
---------------------
C

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D7sus2                     C                        D7sus2
      Let me tell you a story about a boy and a girl
                          C                           D7sus2
It's kinda short, kinda boring, but the end is a whirl
             Am7                    Em7
They were jus   sixteen when the people were mean
        D7sus2                               C
So they didn't love themselves, and now they're gone
                    D7sus2
Headstones on a lawn

[Verse 2]
---------------------
                   C                          D7sus2
And when I was younger, I knew a boy and a boy
                        C                                     D7sus2
Best friends with each other, but always wished they were more
                 Am7                   Em7
'Cause they loved   one another, but never discovered
           D7sus2                              C
'Cause they        were too afraid of what they'd say
                         D7sus2
Moved to different states

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        G6                                 Fadd9
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
         C                                G6
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
        Em7                                Fadd9
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
      C                                      G6
But I think that it could work for you and me
             C
Just wait and see

[Post-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D7sus2                           C
      It's not the end of the story

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D7sus2                     C                          D7sus2
      Now it's on to the sequel about me and my friend
                       C                         D7sus2
Both our parents were evil, so we both made a bet
            Am7                           Em7
If we worked   and we saved, we could both   run away
         D7sus2                        C
And we'd have    a better life, and I was right
                         D7sus2
I wonder if she's alright



[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D7sus2                           C
      It's not the end of the story
D7sus2
      Okay

[Bridge]
---------------------
C        Fmaj7                        C
 And the movie's always runnin' in my head
        Fmaj7                                 C
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
      Fmaj7                                 C
And I hope that they all get their happy end
          Fmaj7
In the end

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
        G6                                 Fadd9
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
         C                                G6
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
        Em7                                Fadd9
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
      C                                      G6
But I think that it could work for you and me
              C
Just wait and see

[Outro]
---------------------
D7sus2                           C
      It's not the end of the story,
    D7sus2   C
Hmm,      hmm
