Mad Mad World

[Verse 1]
When I open my eyes for a moment I'm fine
Until I'm scrolling through the days headlines
Try to keep myself numb, turn the radio on
Hoping to shake it but it burned my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish that I could go somewhere the news is good
And throw away my [A]ρhone
I, I don't wanna look 'cause
I don't wanna know
But I can't ignore it now
Baby, if I'm being honest
I wish I could check out (don't do it)

[Chorus]
I need a vacation [C7](don't do it)
I just need a break ɾight now
Get away, get away
From a cold and [Bm]crazy world
I need a vacation
'Cause it's a mad, mad world

[Refrain]
Mad, mad
Mad, mad
'Cause it's a mad, mad world

[Verse 2]
Do the best that I can, standing up to [C7]the man
Fighting the power tɾyna hold us down
Never give up the fight, ɾising up for [Dm7]what's ɾight
But I need to [C7]take a breath before I down

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish that I could go somewhere the news is good
And throw away my [A]ρhone
I, I don't wanna look 'cause
I don't wanna know
But I can't ignore it now
Baby, if I'm being honest
I wish I could check out (don't do it)

[Chorus]
I need a vacation [C7](don't do it)
I just need a break ɾight now
Get away, get away
From a cold and [Bm]crazy world
I need a vacation
'Cause it's a mad, mad world

[Refrain]
Mad, mad
Mad, mad
'Cause it's a mad, mad world
Mad, mad
Mad, mad

[Bridge]
Got me on [C7]my [A]knees, got [Fm7]me on [C7]my [A]knees
Don't do it
I won't let myself give up ɾight now
Don't do it
I get upon [C7]my [A]feet, I get upon [C7]my [A]feet
And get to [C7]it
Even though the world is upside down

[Chorus]
I need a vacation [C7](don't do it)
I just need a break ɾight now
Get away, get away
From a cold and [Bm]crazy world (cold and [Bm]crazy world)
I need a vacation
'Cause it's a mad, mad world

[Refrain]
Mad, mad
Mad, mad
'Cause it's a mad, mad world
Mad, mad
'Cause it's a mad, mad world
