Intro
[Em] [A] [Em] [A]
[Em] All around me are [G] familiar faces
[D] Worn out places, [A] worn out faces
[Em] Bright and early for their [G] daily races
[D] Going nowhere, [A] going nowhere
[Em] Their tears are filling [G] up their glasses
[D] No expression, [A] no expression
[Em] Hide my head I want to [G] drown my sorrow
[D] No tomorrow, [A↓] no tomorrow
Chorus
[Em] And I find it kinda [A] funny, I find it kinda [Em] sad
The dreams in which I'm [A] dying are the best I've ever [Em] had
I find it hard to [A] tell you, I find it hard to [Em] take
When people run in [A↓] circles it's a very, very
[Em] Maaaaaad [A] world
[Em] Maaaaaad [A] world
[Em] Children waiting for the [G] day they feel good
[D] Happy birthday, [A] happy birthday
[Em] Made to feel the way that [G] every child should
[D] Sit and listen, [A] sit and listen
[Em] Went to school and I was [G] very nervous
[D] No one knew me, [A] no one knew me
[Em] Hello teacher tell me [G] what's my lesson
[D] Look right through me, [A↓] look right through me
Chorus
[Em] And I find it kinda [A] funny, I find it kinda [Em] sad
The dreams in which I'm [A] dying are the best I've ever [Em] had
I find it hard to [A] tell you, I find it hard to [Em] take
When people run in [A↓] circles it's a very, very
[Em] Maaaaaad [A] world
[Em] Maaaaaad [A] world
[Em] Enlarge your [A] world
[Em] Maaaaaad [A↓] world
