Lyrics
Why do you build me up
Buttercup baby, just to let me down
and mess me (G)around?
And then worst of all
you (E)never call, baby, when you (F)say you will.
But I love you (G)still.
I need you more than anyone,
darlin'. You (F)know that I have from the (Ddim)start.
So (C)build me up
Buttercup, don't break my (F)(C)heart.
(G)"I'll be (C)over at ten," you told me (Bb)time and again,
but you're late.
I waited (F)round and then
I (C)run to the door, I can't take anymore,
it's not you.
You let me (F)down again.
(Dm7)Baby, baby I (G7)try to find (Hey,
hey, (Em7)hey!)
a little time and (A7)I'll make you happy.
(F)I'll be home, I'll be (D7)beside the phone waiting for
you. (You.)
Why do you build
