[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.
[Chorus]

Don't you want me baby?

Don't you want me, oh?

Don't you want me baby?
F G
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]

Now I wait to find,

you'd better change it back or we will both be sorry.
