                    D     G Bm
Now that you can't have me
     A        D     G Bm
You suddenly want me
A             D        G   Bm
Now that I'm with somebody else
     A           D     G Bm A
You tell me you love me     Bm

I slept on your doorstep
Begging for one chance
Now that I finally moved on
You say that you missed me all along

Chorus:
A            D       G   Bm
Who do you think you are?
A            D     G  Bm
Who do you think I am?
 A        D       G       Bm
You only love to see me breaking
 A        D       G        Bm
You only want me cause I'm taken
You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can
Still be the one who gets it breaking
A         D        G       A
You only want me when I'm taken

You're messing with my head
Girl that's what you do best
Saying there's nothing you won't do
To get me to say yes
You're impossible to resist
But I wouldn't bet your heart on it
It's like I'm finally awake
And you're just a beautiful mistake

Chorus:
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think I am?
You only love to see me breaking
You only want me 'cause I'm taken
You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can
Still be the one who gets it breaking
You only want me when I'm taken

Em       G
Thank you for showing me
D          A
Who you are underneath
Em            G
No, thank you, I don't need
D                A
Another heartless misery
               Em                     G
You think I'm doing this to make you jealous
    D                        A
And I know that you hate to hear this
     Bm           A           G
But this is not about you anymore

Chorus:
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think I am?
You only love to see me breaking
You only want me 'cause I'm taken
You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can
(No, you don't, no, you don't)
Still be the one who gets it breaking (Breaking)
You only want me when I'm taken

Now that you can't have me
You suddenly want me
