CE7
Why do you build me up, buttercup, baby
FG
Just to let me down and mess me around?
C
And then worst of all
E7F
You never call, baby, when you say you will
G
But I love you still
CC7
I need you more than anyone, darlin'
FFm
You know that I have from the start
CGFCG
So build me up buttercup, don't break my heart
[Verse 1]
CGBbF
"I'll be over at ten, " you tell me time and again
CF
But you're late, I wait around and then
CGBbF
I go to the door, and I can't take it anymore
CF
It's not you, you let me down again
Dm
Baby, baby, try to find
Em
A little time and I'll make you happy
FDmGG
I'll be home, I'll be beside the phone waiting for you, ooh, you
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
CGBbFC
To you I'm a toy, but I could be the boy you adore
F
If you'd just let me know
CGBbFC
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more
F
Why do I need you so?
Dm
Baby, baby, try to find
Em
A little time and I'll make you happy
FDmGG
I'll be home, I'll be beside the phone waiting for you, ooh, you
