It’s all in the rhythm, you have to keep your hand moving. This is where things start getting a bit more interesting for intermediate players as well since I’ll show you how you can combine arpeggios and strumming to create a really nice melodic effect. But as always, feel free to make up your own strumming patterns as well.Īfter we learn the strumming patterns, we’ll have a look at an arpeggio you could use during the verse, if you’d rather not strum. Once we practice changing in between the chords, we’ll learn 2 strumming patterns you might want to use to play this song. Again, nothing overly complicated, perfectly suited for beginners. The verse consists of 4 chords, the Em, G, D, and the A.
Next, we’ll learn the verse chord progression to Mad World. They are just 2 chords basically, the Em and the A, so nothing too difficult here. There are a few intricacies with the fingering, where you’ll need to roll your finger over from one string onto the other, practicing this technique is really important, as it can be used in other songs as well.Īfter we learn the intro solo, we’ll learn the chords a beginner might play during the intro. It is originally played on the piano, but it sounds great on the guitar as well. We’ll start out by learning the intro solo. We’ll be covering a barrage of techniques, so whatever level you’re at, make sure you learn this song. This tutorial on Mad World is really cool since absolute beginners will be able to play it, but intermediate players will be able to challenge their skills as well. The cover is totally different from the original, make sure you listen to that version as well.
This version was recorded in 2003 for the movie Donnie Darko, while the original was recorded in 1982 by Tears for Fears. In today’s guitar lesson, we’ll be going through the song Mad World, as covered by Gary Jules. With our guitar tutorial on Mad World, you will learn these guitar skills: Children waiting for the day they feel good Happy birthday – happy birthday Made to 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. And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda 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 Maaaaaad world Maaaaaaad world. All around me are familiar faces Worn out places – worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere – going nowhere Their tears are filling up their glasses No expression – no expression Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow No tomorrow – no tomorrow.
