[Verse 2]
Now [F] five years later on you've got the [Gsus4] world at your [G] feet
Suc [F] cess has been so easy [C]for [G]you
But [F] don't forget it's me who put you [Gsus4] where you are [G] now
And [F] I can put you back [C]there [G]too

[Pre-Chorus]
It's [A] much too late to find

[F] Either with or with [C]out [G]you
 
[Verse 4]
The [F] five years we have had have been [Gsus4] such good [G] times
[F] I still [C]love [G]you
But [F] now I think it's time I live my [Gsus4] life on my [G] own
[F] guess it's just what I [C]must [G]do
 
[Bridge]
[Am] Don't, don't you [Em] want me? ... You 
[F] know I can't believe it When I 
[Dm] hear that you won't [Gsus4] see [G] me
[Am] Don't, don't you [Em] want me? .. You 
[F] know I don't believe you When you 
[Dm] say that you don't [Gsus4] need [G] me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
It's [A] much too late to find
When you [Bm] think you've changed your mind
You'd [C6] better change it back or we will [E] both be sorry
