[Intro]

F#m      A#
F#m      A#


[Verse 1]

F#m               G#
All around me are familiar faces
A#               D#
Worn out places, worn out faces
F#m                      G#
Bright and early for the daily races
A#             D#
Going nowhere, going nowhere
F#m                     G#
Their tears are filling up their glasses
A#             D#
No expression, no expression
F#m                  G#
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
A#           D#
No tomorrow, no tomorrow


[Chorus]

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


[Verse 2]

F#m                      G#
Children waiting for the day they feel good
A#              D#
Happy birthday, happy birthday
F#m                       G#
Made to feel the way that every child should
A#              D#
Sit and listen, sit and listen
F#m                      G#
Went to school and I was very nervous
A#              D#
No one knew me, no one knew me
F#m                    G#
Hello teacher tell me, what's my lesson?
A#                     D#
Look right through me, look right through me


[Chorus]

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