[Intro]
Yeah
Whataya want from me?
Yeah

[Verse 1]
Hey, slow it down
Whataya want from me?
Yeah, I'm afraid
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

[Pre-Chorus]
There might've been a time when I would give myself away
Oh, once upon a time, I didn't give a damn
But now, here we are
So whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

[Chorus]
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey, whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

[Verse 2]
Yeah (Yeah), it's plain to see (It's plain to see)
That baby, you're beautiful
And there's nothing wrong with you (Nothing wrong with you)
It's me, I'm a freak
But thanks for loving me (Yeah)
'Cause you're doing it perfectly (Perfectly)

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, there might've been a time when I would let you slip away
I wouldn't even try, but I think you could save my life

[Chorus]
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey, whataya want from me? (Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me? (Whataya want from me?)

[Bridge]
Just don't give up on me
I won't let you down
No, I won't let you down
So

[Chorus]
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up (It messed me up)
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Whataya want from me?
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey, whataya want from me? (Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me? (Whataya you want from me?)
Whataya want from me? (Whataya you want from me?)
Whataya want?
Whataya want from me?

Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

Adam Lambert

In 2009, Adam Lambert came to prominence after becoming the runner-up on the eighth season of American Idol. After signing with 19 Entertainment in a joint venture with RCA Records, he released his debut studio album For Your Entertainment in 2009; it debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 with 198,000 copies in first-week sales, and reached the top 10 in several countries. Its singles “For Your Entertainment”, “Whataya Want from Me” and “If I Had You” also became international successes.

Soon after the album release, he headlined a worldwide concert tour, Glam Nation, the first American Idol contestant to do so in the year following his Idol season. Lambert took executive producer credit and was a principal writer on his second studio album, Trespassing, released in May 2012, to critical acclaim. It made its debut in the number one spot on the Billboard 200 album chart. Lambert made music history as the first openly gay artist to achieve this top charting position.

In 2015, Lambert released his third album, The Original High, which debuted at #3 on the U.S. Billboard 200.
