Mad World
I've listened to the CD and this is in the correct key.
These chords are the ones used in the piano part and are all played in their
root position from the octave below middle C.  The main riff is based around
the Fm pentatonic scale and starts on an Ab, if you understand that! This is
basically a piano/keyboard tab and doesnt work as well on guitar, but try it
anyway!

Fm                Ab

Worn out places â€" worn out faces 
Fm                          Ab
Bright and early for their daily races 
Eb               Bb
Going nowhere â€" going nowhere 
Fm                      Ab
Their tears are filling up their glasses 
Eb             Bb
No expression â€" no expression 
Fm                     Ab
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow

Fm                      Bb                            Fm

Eb               Bb
 Sit and listen â€" sit and listen 
Fm                       Ab
Went to school and I was very nervous 
Eb              Bb
No one knew me â€" no one knew me 
Fm                     Ab
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson 

Eb                     Bb
Look right through me â€" look right through me 


[Chorus]

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