[Verse]

F                                      G
You were working as a waitress in some cocktail bar,
F          G
when I met you.
F                                        G
I picked you out, and pulled you up, and turned you around,
F                       G
turned you into someone new.
F                                      G
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet,
F                           G
success has been so easy on you.
F                                             G
But don't forget that I'm the one who put you where you are now,
F                       G
I can put you back down too.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am               Em
Don't, don't you want me?
F                                     G
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me.
Am               Em
Don't, don't you want me?
F                                    G
You know I can't believe it When you say that you won't see me.

[More Pre-Chorus]
Am
Now I wait to find,
Bm
you have changed your mind,
C                              E
you'd better change it back or we will both be sorry.

Don't you want me baby?
F                  G
Don't you want me, oh?
F                 G
Don't you want me baby?

Don't you want me, oh?

[Verse 2]
F                                G
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar,
F            G
that much is true.
F                               G
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place,
F                      G
either with or without you.
F                                    G
The five years we have had have been such good times,
F            G
I still love you.
F                                   G
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own,
F                             G
I guess it's just what I must do.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am               Em
Don't, don't you want me?
F                                    G
You know I can't believe it when you say that you won't see me.
Am               Em
Don't, don't you want me?
F                                     G
You know I don't believe you When you say that you don't need me.

[More Pre-Chorus]
Am
Now I wait to find,
Bm
you've changed your mind,
C                              E
you'd better change it back or we will both be sorry.
