[Verse 1]

            
All around me 

    
are familiar f

aces
            
Worn out place

   
s, worn out fa

ces
            
Bright and ear

           
ly for the dai

ly races
            
Going nowhere,

 
 going nowhere
            
Their tears ar

          
e filling up t

heir glasses
            
No expression,

 
 no expression
            
Hide my head I

       
 wanna drown m

y sorrow
           
No tomorrow, n

#
o tomorrow

[Chorus]

            
And I find it 

            
kind of funny 

              
I find it kind

    
 of sad
              
The dreams in 

            
which I'm dyin

              
g are the best

           
 I've ever had
              
I find it hard

            
 to tell you, 

              
I find it hard

    
 to take
              
When people ru

Mad world, mad
