-4  -4  -5 -5 -4  -4 -6 -6 -6 -5
 All around me are familiar faces
 6    6  6  5    6    6  6 -5 5 -4
Worn out faces, worn out fa-ce-e's
 -4    -4  -5 -5 -4   -4   -6 -6 -6 -5
Bright and early for their daily races
6  6  6   5     6  6  6 -5 5 -4
Going nowhere, going no-wh-e-r-e

-4   -5   -5  -4 -4   -6  -6   -6 -5
The tears are filling up their glasses
6   6  6  5    6  6  6  -5 5 -4
No expression, no ex-pre-ss-ion
-4  -4  -5   -5 -4   -4  -6   -6  -6 -5
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
6   6 6  5   6   6  6 -55-4
No tomorrow, no to-mo-rr-ow
 -4  -4 -5  -5  -6  -6  -7 6
And I find it kind of funny
6  -7  -7   6  6  -4
I find it kind of sad
-4   -5   -5  -6   -6  -7  6
The dreams in which I'm dying
6    6  -7   -7   6 6  -4
Are the best I've ever had
-4 -5  -5  -6  -6  -7  6
I find it hard to tell you
6  -7  -7  6   6  -4
I find it hard to take
-4   -5 -5  -6  -6  -7  6
When people run in circles
6   6 -7-7  6 6  -9  -8    -9   -8
Its a very, very mad world, mad world
 -4  -4   -5  -5  -4  -4  -6  -6   -6    -5 
Children waiting for the day they feel good
6  6   6   5    6 6   6 -5  5  -4 
Happy birthday, happy birth-d-a-y 
-4  -4   -5   -5   -4  -4  -6 -6   -6    -5 
And they feel the way that every child should
 6    6   6  5    6   6   6 -55-4 
Sit and listen, sit and li-st-en  
-4   -4  -5   -5  -4 -4  -6-6  -6 -5 
Went to school and I was very nervous
 6   6   6   5   6   6   6  -5 5 -4 
No-one knew me, No-one knew m-e-e-e 
-4 -4  -5 -5   -4  -4   -6   -6  -6 -5
 Hello teacher, tell me whats my lesson 
 6     6      6    5    6    6      6    -5 5 -4 

Look right through me, look right through m-e-e-e  
-4  -4 -5  -5  -6  -6  -7 6 
And I find it kind of funny 
6  -7  -7  6   6  -4 
I find it kind of sad 
 -4   -5    -5  -6   -6  -7 6
 The dreams in which I'm dying 
 6   6  -7   -7   6 6  -4 
Are the best I've ever had 
-4 -5  -5  -6  -6  -7  6 
I find it hard to tell you 
6  -7  -7  6    6  -4 
I find it hard to take 
-4   -5 -5  -6  -6  -7  6
 When people run in circles 
6   6 -7-7  6 6  -9  -8    -9   -8 
 Its a very, very mad world, mad world 
-9     -8   -8    -8  
 Mad world, mad world 
-9    -8    -9    -8 
MAD WORLD, MAD WORLD................
