Chords
pin

C                  E7 
Why do you build me up, Buttercup, baby 
           F                          Dm                
Just to let me down and mess me around 
G7           C                        E7  
And then worst of all  you never call, baby 
                  F                       Dm   
When you say you will but I love you still 
G7      C   G7                C7 
I need you   more than anyone, darling 
       F                                        Fm 
You know that I have from the start 
     C                   G                                       F       C 
So build me up, Buttercup, don't break my heart 


            C         G                          Bb            F 
"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again 
             C                             Dm                    G7 
But you're late, I'm waiting 'round and then 
  C              G                 Bb          F 
I run to the door, I can't take any more 
            C                       Dm          
It's not you, you let me down again 


G7           Dm 
H ey, hey, hey. Baby, baby, try to find 
G7           Em                              A7 
H ey, hey, hey. A little time, and I'll make you happy 
Dm                             D7                                     G 
I'll be home, I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

                     C                  E7 
Why do you build me up, Buttercup, baby 
           F                          Dm                
Just to let me down and mess me around 
G7           C                        E7  
And then worst of all  you never call, baby 
                  F                       Dm   
When you say you will but I love you still 
G7      C   G7                C7 
I need you   more than anyone, darling 
       F                                        Fm 
You know that I have from the start 
     C                   G                                       F       C 
So build me up, Buttercup, don't break my heart 

     C              G            Bb                F           C 
To you I'm a toy, but I could be the boy you adore 
                    Dm               G7 
If you'd just let me know 
   C                         G              Bb            F                C 
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more 
                     Dm          
Why do you treat me so 

G7           Dm 
H ey, hey, hey. Baby, baby, try to find 
G7           Em                              A7 
H ey, hey, hey. A little time, and I'll make you happy 
Dm                             D7                                     G 
I'll be home, I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

                     C                  E7 
Why do you build me up, Buttercup, baby 
           F                          Dm                
Just to let me down and mess me around 
G7           C                        E7  
And then worst of all  you never call, baby 
                  F                       Dm   
When you say you will but I love you still 
G7      C   G7                C7 
I need you   more than anyone, darling 
       F                                        Fm 
You know that I have from the start 
     C                   G                                       F       C 
So build me up, Buttercup, don't break my heart

G7              C   G7                C7 (start to slow down)
IIIIIIIIIIIII need you   more than anyone, darling 
       F                                        Fm 
You know that I have from the start 
     C                   G                                       F       C 
So build me up, Buttercup, don't break my heart
