Gary Jules - Mad World

 
 Tabbed by: The_S   [email protected]

 The_S: This song is a cover of the original Tears for Fears - Mad World.
        I heard it whilst watching a movie called Donnie Darko.
        I have scoured the net and found no tabs for this song, so I
        made one myself.
        I am a classical guitarist, and have tabbed it in a classical
        sort of style.
        I have designed it so the guitarist plays both the rhythm and the
        notes which Gary Jules sings.
        The Chord names you will see at the top of the tab, are not the
        actual chord names, because you will have a capo on 1st. They are
        merely the chord formations you would take should you decide to
        strum. (Em on the tab is actually Fm)
        So basically, in playing this tab, pretend your capo isnt there.


 Put a capo on 1st  (2nd if you want to play the Tears for Fears version)

 Tuning: EADGBE (standard)

 For all those who have yet to own a capo, here are the lyrics, with
 the actual chord names for you to strum.

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

Fm                   A#                     Fm 
 And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
                         A#                           Fm
 The dreams in which Im dying are the best Ive ever had
 I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
 When people run in circles its a very very
Fm   A#      Fm  A#  
 mad world  mad world

 Children waiting for the day they feel good
 Happy birthday  happy birthday
 Made to feel the way that every child should
 Sit and listen  sit and listen
 Went to school and I was very nervous
 No one knew me  no one knew me
 Hello teacher tell me whats my lesson
 Look right through me  look right through me

 And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
 The dreams in which Im dying are the best Ive ever had
 I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
 When people run in circles its a very very
 Mad world . . . world
 Enlarge your world
 Mad world
