Ok, I cut in here with version with lyrics and
chords...

A                   D             A
I make it half past six you come at seven
D              A        H       E
Always trying to keep me, hanging around
A                        D              A
You little spoilt thing, girl you kept me waiting
D              A        H       E
Never contemplating my point of view

D     Hm/G#    A
This comes as no suprise
D    Hm/G#     A
I'm fool, for I believed your lies
D   Hm/G#         A             F#m
But now I've seen through your disguise
Hm E         C#m        F#        Hm   E    A
Who needs, 'cause I don't need, who needs you ?

intro
bridge: A E A E

H       A     E
Oh I believed you
F#m           E
Went on my knees to you
H       A      E
How I trusted you
F#m     H       E
But you turned me down


C#m                     A
But it's dog eat dog in this rat race
C#m                          F#sus4   F#  
And it leaves you bleeding lying flat on your face
A              H                 E        
Reaching out, reaching out for a helping hand
E7
(Where is that helping hand ?)

Solo (verse chords)
(I like it, I like it)
(mm, ouuuu)
(Well, I don't need you)

How I was pushed around
"Don't let it get you down"
You walked all over me
"But don't you ever give in"

Takin one step forward, slipping two steps back
There's an empty feeling that you can't forget
Reaching out, reaching out for a helping hand

When I met, you were always charming
Couldn't sleep at night 'till you were mine
You were oh so sophisticated
Never interested in what i'd say
I had to swallow my pride
So naive, you took me for a ride
But now I'm the one to decide
Who needs. well I don't need, who needs you ? 

intro
outro: A  E   D D/C# hm A
