The Story

[Intro] C  F

                   C
Let me tell you a story
                   F
About a boy and a girl
                        C
It's kinda short kinda boring
                  F
But the end is a whirl
      Am
They were just 16
          G
When the people were mean
         F
So they didn't love themselves
            C
Now they're gone
                F
Headstones on a lawn

           C
When I was younger
                   F
I knew a boy and a boy
                       C
Best friends with each other
                            F
But always wished they were more
           Am
Cause they loved one another
    G                      F
But never discovered cause they were
 too afraid
          C
Of what they'd say

Moved to different states

        Em7                        
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the 
        F
way the world works
          C                        
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it
         G
 ain't sweet
        Em7                        
Oh, 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
               C     F
Just wait and see
                        C      F
It's not the end of the story

                    C
Now it's on to the sequel
                 F
About me and my friend
                      C
Both our parents were evil
                  F
So we both made a bet
         Am
If we worked and we saved
           G
We could both run away
           F
And we'd have a better life
         C
And I was right
                  F
I wonder if she's alright

        Em7                        
Oh, and I'm afraid that's just the 
        F
way the world works
          C                        
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it
        G
 ain't sweet
        Em7                        
Oh, 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
               C   F
Just wait and see
                        C     F
It's not the end of the story

    F                              
And the movies always running in my
 C
 head
         F                         
All the people, all the lovers, all
     C
 my friends
       F                           
And I hope that they all get their 
      C
happy end
       F
In the end

        Em7

        F
way the world works
