Here's how to play Mad World by Tears for fears, also covered by Gary Jules (who kept my favourite band The Darkness off the Christmas number 1 in the UK...ggrrrr!
This song uses just two easy chords for the intro and chorus, E minor and A major, making it fantastic for beginner to play and sing at the same time
The chords uses the sequence E minor, G major, D major and A major, making appropriate for Level 4 of the Andy Guitar Beginners Course
