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
Em                      A                            Em
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
Em                 A                           Em
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
Em                  A
When people run in circles it’s a very very
Em           A   Em           A
   mad world        mad world


Em                        G
Children waiting for the day they feel good
D               A
Happy birthday  happy birthday
Em                        G
Made to 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
Em                      A                             Em
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
Em                A                            Em
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
Em                  A
When people run in circles it’s a very very
Em           A   Em           A
   mad world        mad world
Em                    A
   enlarge your world
Em           A  
   mad world
