      Am
Every pupil in the classroom

Will answer this song if you ask them

      G               D              A Asus4 A
Every mouth shout the message out as one

      Am
Every girl weeps like a willow

Every boy cries into his pillow

Every tear disappears in the morning sun

You don't need an indie song

   Dm7               G
To figure out what's going on
[Chorus]
C                Gm
Tell me that I'm normal

    F                C
And tell me that I'm sane

    Em               Am  Am/G  Am/F# Fdim 
And tell me that you feel this too

    C                   Gm
The dreams that we have had

Are gonna prove that we're not mad

   Am C Em Dm G Am D G E
To you...

      Am
Every nose is a vacuum cleaner

       F                 C
In the loved-up London arena

      G            D               A Asus4 A
Every eye shines a dollar sign for me

      Am
Every tongue will wag if you want it

Every lung has a shadow on it

      G             D          A   Asus4 A
Every heart comes apart at the seams

          Fmaj7        Em
You don't need a mastermind

To read between the long white lines

Are gonna prove that we're not mad

   Am C Em Dm G Am D G E
To you...

        Am
Well we all need reassurance

      F                      C
As we play life's game of endurance

       G           D            A    Asus4 A
Like a nice cup of tea or a cigarette

          Am
But don't lean too long on the crutches

          F                      C
Or you'll fall straight into the clutches

   G                      D           A    Asus4 A
Of those who see free expression as a threat

          Fmaj7         Em
You don't need a law degree

   Dm7               G
To set your mind and spirit free so tell me...

C                Gm
What the hell is normal?

    F               C
And who the hell is sane?

  Em                  Am  Am/G  Am/F# Fdim 
And why the hell care anyway?

    C                  Gm
The dreams that we have had

          F                    G#
Are gonna prove that we're all mad

             Am C Em Dm G Am D G E
And that's okay...
