Adam and friends. It's always a duo. The audience and the stage. At least a duo. Maybe a trio, a quatuor, a quintet, a sextuor, a septuor, an octuor...

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world, mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
And I 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, what's my lesson ?
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world, mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

Song originally released by Tears for fears, Gary Jules made a famous cover with voice and piano.

Songwriters: Orzabal Roland

In this key of E minor it is very simple to play on the bass.

Verse is E G D A in loop and chorus is E A in loop. It's fun cause those are open strings so you can drop one hand and dance while playing.

On the guitar it is very simple too, the chords are
Em G D Am for the verse, and you can simplify them by leaving the high E string open in each chord, therefore playing, Em7, G6, D9, Am9

For the chorus just use E and Am, again you can simplify them by using Em7 and Am9. Hope you enjoy !
