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:
B Esus4 Esus4 E ; B Esus4 Esus4 E
You better stop,
(RIFF 2)

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

You better stop,
A play (RIFF 2) once then (RIFF 3) -- 2x's
Look around,
A
Here it comes.
E
Here comes your nine-teenth nervous breakdown

| This was recorded in December of 1965 and Mick was still with Chrissie. This was most likely about her, as he always complained about how high maintainence and self absorbed she was. He supposedly wrote Under my thumb about her too, when their was a power shift in their relationship. Marianne and him didn't get together until late 66, early 67. | |

| This song is about Marianne Faithful, who was a wild child from the age of 15 (as I would have been been if I'd been young, rich and gorgeous in London in the 60's) and whose mother was some kind of faded Eastern European Royalty. Obviously, she had a good go at disarranging Jagger's mind too. | |
