[Verse 1]
E
You're the kind of person you meet
At certain dismal dull affairs.
A
Center of a crowd, talking much too loud
E
Running up and down the stairs.
A
Well it seems to me that you have seen
Too much in too few years.
E
And though you've tried you just can't hide
Your eyes are edged with tears.
[Chorus]
BEsus4Esus4E ; BEsus4Esus4E
You better stop,
(RIFF 2)
E|------------------------| *NOTE: strike the note on
A B ------------------------| the 5th fret first,
Look around, G ---------7--5-----------| then place finger
D|--*5--7-----------------| on the 7th fret

E|------------------------|E
Here it comes, here it comes,
A
Here it comes, here it comes.
E
Here comes your nine-teenth nervous breakdown.
[Verse 2]
When you were a child you were treated kind
But you were never brought up right.
You were always spoiled with a thousand toys
But still you cried all night.
Your mother who neglected you
Owes a million dollar tax.
And your father's still perfecting ways
Of making ceiling wax.
[Chorus]
BEsus4Esus4E ; BEsus4Esus4E
You better stop,

[BDA K]
BE
Oh, who's to blame, that girl's just insane.
A
Well nothing I do don't seem to work,
B
It only seems to make matters worse.
E
Oh please.
[Verse 3]
You were still in school when you had that fool
Who really messed your mind.
And after that you turned your back
On treating people kind.
On our first trip I tried so hard
To rearrange your mind.
But after a while I realized
You were disarranging mine.
[Chorus]
BEsus4Esus4E ; BEsus4Esus4E
You better stop,
