VERSE 1:
    E MajorE
    You're the kind of person you meet
    At certain dismal dull affairs.
       A augmentedA
    Center of a crowd, talking much too loud
        E MajorE
    Running up and down the stairs.
        A augmentedA
    Well it seems to me that you have seen
    Too much in too few years.
       E MajorE
    And though you've tried you just can't hide
    Your eyes are edged with tears.

CHORUS:
          BB  Esus4Esus4 Esus4Esus4 E MajorE ; BB Esus4Esus4 Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
    You better stop,


              (RIFF 2)
            E MajorE ------------------------| *NOTE: strike the note on
       A augmentedA    BB ------------------------|     the 5th fret first,
    Look around,  G+G ---------7--5-----------|     then place finger
            D MajorD --*5--7-----------------|     on the 7th fret
            A augmentedA ------------------------|     without striking.
            E MajorE ------------------------|

         E MajorE
    Here it comes, here it comes,
         A augmentedA
    Here it comes, here it comes.
       E MajorE
    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:


BREAK:
    BB             E MajorE
    Oh, who's to blame, that girl's just insane.
       A augmentedA
    Well nothing I do don't seem to work,
      BB
    It only seems to make matters worse.
      E MajorE
    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:


FIRST GUITAR: start with (RIFF 3) -- 3x's

       A augmentedA ---------9----------------9---------|
       E MajorE ---7------------7------7------------|
