Mad World piano tab by Gary Jules

This song was written by Roland Orzabal of the band Tears for Fears after he listened to Duran Duran’s “Girls On Film”. He said he was spending a lot of time strumming his acoustic guitar while staring out the window watching people going about their day.

This is a note for note transcription of the cover version Michael Andrews and Gary Jules recorded for the film Donnie Darko.
