and died[Em] the next day[C]
it's a bl[G]ack fly[Cadd9]
in yo[Em]ur chardonnay[D]

dont you think[C]
Chorus:
G, Cadd9
it's like rain
on your weddin[Em]g day[D]
G, Cadd9

G, Cadd9
it's a good advice
that you just[Em] didn't take[D]
and who [G]would have thought[D]
it figur[C]es ?
Verse 2:
Mr. Play-It-Safe
was afraid to fly
he packed his suitcase
and kissed his kids goodbye
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
it's like rain
on your wedding day
it's a free ride
when you've already paid
it's a good advice
that you just didnt take
and who would have thought
it figures
Well li[G]fe has a funny w[D]ay
of snea[Em]king up on yo[C]u
When you t[G]hink everything's [D]okay
and everything's going r[C]ight
And lif[G]e has a funny wa[D]y
of he[Em]lping you out whe[C]n
You thi[G]nk everything's gone [D]wrong
and everything blows up in you[C]r face
Verse 3:
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
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think
Chorus
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
And who would've thought, it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
