Mad World chords
Gary Jules (Tears For Fears)

Capo I *

E minorEm A augmentedA 2x

E minorEm        G+G
All around me are familiar faces;
D MajorD        A augmentedA
worn out places, worn out faces
E minorEm            G+G
Bright and early for the daily races;
D MajorD       A augmentedA
going nowhere, going nowhere
E minorEm           G+G
Their tears are filling up their glasses;
D MajorD       A augmentedA
no expression, no expression
E minorEm          G+G
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow;
D MajorD      A augmentedA
no tomorrow, no tomorrow

E minorEm          A augmentedA
And I find it kind of funny;
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it kind of sad
E minorEm           A augmentedA
The dreams in which I'm dying,
E minorEm           A augmentedA
are the best I've ever had
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it hard to tell you;
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it hard to take
E minorEm         A augmentedA
When people run in circles,
          E minorEm A augmentedA   E minorEm A augmentedA
it's a very, very, mad world, mad world

E minorEm            G+G
Children waiting for the day they feel good;
D MajorD        A augmentedA
happy birthday, happy birthday
E minorEm           G+G
And I feel the way that every child should;
D MajorD        A augmentedA
sit and listen, sit and listen
E minorEm            G+G
Went to school and I was very nervous;
D MajorD        A augmentedA
no one knew me, no one knew me
E minorEm          G+G
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson;
D MajorD           A augmentedA
look right through me, look right through me

E minorEm          A augmentedA
And I find it kind of funny;
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it kind of sad
E minorEm           A augmentedA
The dreams in which I'm dying,
E minorEm           A augmentedA
are the best I've ever had
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it hard to tell you;
E minorEm        A augmentedA
I find it hard to take
E minorEm         A augmentedA
When people run in circles,
          E minorEm A augmentedA   E minorEm A augmentedA
it's a very, very, mad world, mad world
E minorEm      A augmentedA   E minorEm A augmentedA
Enlarge your world, mad world
