Chord/Tab song: The Story

Verse 1
Let me tell you a [C] story about a boy and a [F] girl
It's kinda short, kinda [C] boring, but the end is a [F] whirl
They were [Am] just sixteen when the [G] people were mean
So they [Fmaj7] didn't love themselves, and now they're [C] gone
Headstones on a [Fmaj7] lawn
 
Verse 2
And when I was [C] younger, I knew a boy and a [F] boy
Best friends with each [C] other, but always wished they were [Fmaj7] more
'Cause they [Am] loved one another, but [G] never discovered
'Cause [Fmaj7] they were too afraid of what they'd [C] say
Moved to different [Fmaj7] states
 
Chorus
Oh, and [G] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
It ain't [C] funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't [G] sweet
Oh, and [Em] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
But I [C] think that it could work for you and [G] me
Just wait and [C] see [Fmaj7]
It's not the end of the [C] story [Fmaj7]
 
Verse 3
Now it's on to the [C] sequel about me and my [Fmaj7] friend
Both our parents were [C] evil, so we both made a [Fmaj7] bet
If we [Am] worked and we saved, we could [G] both run away
And we'd [Fmaj7] have a better life, and I was [C] right
I wonder if she's [Fmaj7] alright
Chorus
Oh, and [G] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
It ain't [C] funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't [G] sweet
Oh, and [Em] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
But I [C] think that it could work for you and [G] me
Just wait and [C] see [Fmaj7]
It's not the end of the [C] story [Fmaj7]
Okay [C]
 
Bridge
And the [Fmaj7] movie's always runnin' in my [C] head
All the [Fmaj7] people, all the lovers, all my [C] friends
And I [Fmaj7] hope that they all get their happy [C] end
In the [Fmaj7] end
 
Chorus
Oh, and [G] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
It ain't [C] funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't [G] sweet
Oh, and [Em] I'm afraid that's just the way the [Fmaj7] world works
But I [C] think that it could work for you and [G] me
Just wait and [C] see [Fmaj7]
That's not the end of the [C] story, [Fmaj7] hmm, [C] hmm
