Adam Lambert - Mad World - Live Version (Tears for Fears cover)
American Idol Performance on 7th April, 2009
Tabbed by: Asif Zaman
Date: 14th April, 2009
Tuning: Standard
Note: I am pretty sure about the chord sequence. I have fixed the key to A.
This basically a short version of the original Tears for Fears version. There are some
in the lyris of the first verse, the rest are same as the original.
You can ignore the A5 chords and play it as Am if you want. But A5 sounds better if you
plucking.
Chords:
A5 x 0 2 2 x 0
Am x 0 2 2 1 0
Am7 x 0 2 0 1 0
C x 3 2 0 1 0
G 3 5 5 4 3 3
D x x 0 2 3 2
Verse 1:
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Going nowhere with their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Chorus:
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
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Verse 2:
I 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..ee
Chorus 2:
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
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a, very very
Mad World
Mad World
Mad World
Mad Wor....rld
