Jar file not including text file despite using GetResourceAsStream() and building fine

I am trying to include a text file in the jar, and am using this code:

InputStream wordList = Dictionary.class.getResourceAsStream("words.txt");

try {
    try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(wordList))) {
        String line;

        while((line = br.readLine()) != null){
            this.words.add(line);
        }
    }
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
    Logger.getLogger(Dictionary.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}

I am using NetBeans and there don't appear to be any suntax errors, and when I clean and build, I get this in the console:

    ant -f "C:\\Users\\James\\OneDrive\\Documents\\NetBeans Projects\\WordFinder" -Dnb.internal.action.name=rebuild clean jar

To run this application from the command line without Ant, try:
java -jar "C:\Users\James\OneDrive\Documents\NetBeans Projects\WordFinder\dist\WordFinder.jar"
jar:
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 0 seconds)

There doesn't appear to be anything wrong when building the jar, since it says it was successful. Yet, when I try to run the jar, the UI and everything loads fine, but when I try to do something, the text file still isn't working because nothing happens, for example, when I click a button (The code reads from the text file when the button is clicked).

Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
