Chords for Conan Gray - The Story (Official Video)

_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [C] _ [Dm]
Let me [C] tell you a story About a [Dm] boy and a [Am] girl
It's kinda [C] short, kinda boring But the [D] end is a [C] whirl _
[Am] They were just 16 [G] And the people were [C] mean
So they didn't love themselves And now they're gone
_ [G] Headstones on [Am] [F] And [C] when I was younger
I knew a boy and a [Am] boy [F] Best [C] friends with each other
But I always [Am] wished there were more _
Cause they loved one [G] another But never [C] discovered
Cause they were too afraid Of what they'd say
Moved to [F] different states _
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid That's just the [C] way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty [G] It ain't sweet _
[Em] Oh, and I'm afraid That's just the [G] way the world [C] works
But I think that it could work For you [G] and me _
Just [C] wait and see It's [Dm] _ [F] _
not the [C] end of the story
_ _ [F] _ _
Now it's [C] on to the sequel About me [F] and my friend
Both [C] our parents were evil So we [F] both made a bet
If [Am] we worked and we [G] saved We could both run away
[F] And we'd have a better life And [C] I was right
I wonder if [F] she's alright _ _
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid That's just the [F] way the world works
[C] It ain't funny, it ain't pretty [G] It ain't sweet _
[Em] Oh, and I'm afraid That's just the [F] way the world works
[C] But I think that it could work For you [G] and me _
Just [C] wait and see It's [F] _ _
not the [C] end of the story
And [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [F] the movie's always running [C] through my head
All [F] the people, all the lovers, [C] all my friends
_ [F] And I hope that they all get their [C] happy end
_ [F] In the end _
[G] Oh, and I'm afraid That's just the [F] way the world works
It [C] ain't funny, it ain't pretty [G] It ain't sweet
Oh, [Em] and I'm afraid That's just the [F] way the world works
But [C] I think that it could work For you [G] and me
Just [C] wait and see It's [F] _ _
[C] not the end of the story _ _ _ _ _
