Reapeat the above riff once more, but instead of playing the A riff, play an open A.

Lyrics:
E                 G                 D                A
All around me are familiar faces.   Worn out places, worn out faces
E                          G             D              A
Bright and early for their daily races.  Going nowhere, going nowhere
E                       G                  D              A
Their tears are filling up their glasses.  No expression, no expression
E                      G                 D            A
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow.  No tomorrow, no tomorrow


E                   A
And I find it kinda funny
                E
I find it kinda sad
                         A
The dreams in which I'm dying
                       E
Are the best I've ever had
                  A
I find it hard to tell you
                  E
I find it hard to take
                   A ~
When people run in circles

It's a very, very mad world mad world


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


E                   A
And I find it kinda funny
                E
I find it kinda sad
                        A
The dreams in which I'm dying
                       EA
Are the best I've ever had
                  A
I find it hard to tell you
                  E
I find it hard to take
                   A ~
When people run in circles

It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
E ~       A ~
Enlarging your world (X4)

Mad World
