Ironic - Alanis Morissette
From the album, "Jagged Little Pill"
Words and music by Alanis Morissette
[Laboriously typed up by Mardi Gras(TNT)]
Notes: If there are spacing errors... That's because I didn't type all this up on a PC or Mac! Requires a minimum of 2 guitars. Guitar 1 plays the intro rhythm where required and the sections where the chords are shown above the lyrics. Guitar 2 handles all the rhythm figures and adds the boost in the song by accompanying Guitar 1 with some of the chords in the chorus sections. Ideally, Guitar 1 should be acoustic and Guitar 2 should have a switch between a soft neck postion sound and distortion.
The chords in verse 1 are to be played really softly and smoothly, almost sweep picking the strings. In verse 3, Guitar 1 plays the chords shown, but this time adding a lot of palm muting between chord changes (listen to the track). Later on in verse 3, on the part where "And isn't it ironic... etc..." is sung, Guitar 1 arpeggiates the chords instead of just strumming the chords (again, listen to the track).

A traffic jam when you are already late
F# B F# G#m
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
F# B F# G#m
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
(No instruments on these last two lines)
It's like meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
(Bongo drums Fill-in)

A little too ironic... And yeah I really do think...

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out... Helping you out
(Cymbals and ending on guitars)
(I suggest you end on the intro 2 rhythm s-l-o-w-l-y)
That's about it for Ironic. There is only so much that can be explained in words. I suggest you just listen to the track. The song itself is fairly easy and sounds great when played with a band. I'm fairly sure that what I have tabbed out is accurate to the track on the album. There may be small errors here and there, so corrections are all welcome.
