[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Em                     G

All around me are familiar faces

D                A

Worn out places, worn out faces

Em                            G

Bright and early for their daily races

D              A

Going nowhere, going nowhere

Em                         G

Their tears are filling up their glasses

D              A

No expression, no expression

Em                         G

Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow

D            A

No tomorrow, no tomorrow

 

[Chorus]

Em                     A                      Em

And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad

        A                            Em

The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had

     A                           Em

I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take

  A

When people run in circles, it’s a very, very

Em      A

Mad world

Em      A

Mad world

 

[Verse 2]

Em                          G

Children waiting for the day they feel good

D               A

Happy birthday, happy birthday

Em                         G

And I feel the way that every child should

D               A

Sit and listen, sit and listen

Em                           G

Went to school, and I was very nervous

D               A

No one knew me, no one knew me

Em                         G

Hello, teacher, tell me what’s my lesson

D                      A

Look right through me, look right through me

 

[Chorus]

Em                     A                      Em

And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad

       A                            Em

The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had

  A                           Em

I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take

     A

When people run in circles, it’s a very, very

Em      A

Mad world

Em      A

Mad world

Em              A

Enlarging your world

Em      A

Mad world
