[Intro]
Em A
Em A
[Verse 1]
Em G
All around me are familiar faces
D A
Worn out places, worn out faces
Em G
Bright and early for their daily races
D A
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Em G
Their tears are filling up their glasses
D A
No expression, no expression
Em G
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
D A
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
[Chorus]
Em A Em
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
A Em
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
A Em
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
A
When people run in circles, it's a very, very
Em A
Mad world
Em A
Mad world
[Verse 2]
Em G
Children waiting for the day they feel good
D A
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Em G
And I feel the way that every child should
D A
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Em G
Went to school, and I was very nervous
D A
No one knew me, no one knew me
Em G
Hello, teacher, tell me what's my lesson
D A
Look right through me, look right through me
[Chorus]
Em A Em
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
A Em
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
A Em
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
A
When people run in circles, it's a very, very
Em A
Mad world
Em A
Mad world
Em A
Enlarging your world

With the Chorus you have it Em,A if you change to G then to A it sounds really good so
Em G A
Maaaad Worrrrllld
Also fits with the song cuz it has a gap between the verse and chrous that you always find your self going "bommmm" "maaaad wooorrrrld"

I reckon the A chord in the bridge (i.e. "And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad..." could actually be A+9 (577600).

This is a great song and the chords are easy, also for those who could not be bothered learning the tab (like me), you can just pick through the chords and it sounds awesom
