Enjoy it!

[C] [F] [C] [F]
Verse 1
[F]I get to the [C]party, [F]but I'm too [C]late
[F]And I got [C]stood up [F]on my very first [C]date
[F]I listen to [C]country [F]and everybody goes [C]rock
[F]I get to the [C]dance floor, [F]that's when the music [C]stops
Pre-Chorus
[C]It doesn't matter what I do, I [F]just can't seem to win
[C]But here I go ag[G]ain
And I say
Chorus
[C]Hey that's the [F]story of my life
I [G]had a good plan but it [F]didn't go right
[C]Oh no I'm [F]overdrawn
I [G]check my account and the [F]money's all gone
[C]Why me I [F]don't know what to think
I [G]finally get aboard and the [F]whole boat sinks
[C]Seems to [F]be the [G]story [F]of my life
Intro
Verse 2
I pick a slot [C]machine and [F]lose it all [C]again
[F]But when I [C]walk away, [F]someone else always [C]wins
[F]When she finally [C]calls me, I [F]forget my [C]phone
[F]And when I'm [C]starving, you [F]know the kitchen's [C]closed
Pre-Chorus
[C]It doesn't matter what I try, [F]it all ends up the same
[C]And here I go ag[G]ain
Chorus
[C]Hey that's the [F]story of my life
I [G]had a good plan but it [F]didn't go right
[C]Oh no I'm [F]overdrawn
I [G]check my account and the [F]money's all gone
[C]Why me I [F]don't know what to think
I [G]finally get aboard and the [F]whole boat sinks
[C]Seems to [F]be the [G]story [F]of my life
Bridge
[C]Just [F]when it [G]seems like it's [F]turnin' 'round for [C]me
[C]There's [F]always [G]something that [F]ends up happen[C]ing
[C]I [F]found my [G]car but I [F]can't find my [C]keys
Solo
[----]
Verse 3
I get to the party a little too late
And once again the music stops to play
Chorus
[C]Hey that's the [F]story of my life
I [G]had a good plan but it [F]didn't go right
[C]Oh no I'm [F]overdrawn
I [G]check my account and the [F]money's all gone
[C]Why me I [F]don't know what to think
I [G]finally get aboard and the [F]whole boat sinks
[C]Seems to [F]be the [G]story [F]of my life
Solo again
