Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]If [D]I wake before[G] the sun rises[D]
I remember stories [G]old[D]
Told [C]to me by my mother's [G]voice
As [C]the sky it turns from blue to [G]gold
[D]

[Verse 2]
She told me of the [G]day she [D]learned
That madness is [G]a man, [D]oh[C]
Madness is a [G]man among us, [C]oh
And she let the madness [G]in

[Verse 3]
[G][D]
Like any other [G]man I have [D]a code
And hold my friends to higher [G]stand[C]ards
But out on Ellen's [G]Quay
a new crop [C]of kids
Every year with louder [G]voices[D]
Well, trying to reach [G]them
Is like sewing up [D]a geyser
'Cause madness is a man, [C]oh
Madness is [G]a man among us, [C]oh
They will let the madness [G]in

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][C]
[G][C][G][D]

[Verse 4]
And then [D]there [G]are those
Who can make time [D]stop
Crush the future into [C]present
Your job, your house, your [G]family[C]
Turn to dust in an in[G]stant[D]
And [C]a single [G]word
From [Em]your lover[G]'s voice[D]
Says madness is [G]a man, [D]oh[C]
Madness is a [G]man among us, [C]oh
You will let the madness [G]in
