G
[Chorus]
G C
Why do you build me up
E7
Butter cup, baby
F
Just to let me down?
G
And mess me around
C
And then, worst of all
E7
You never call, baby
F
When you say you will
G
But I love you still
C
I need you
C7
More than anyone, darling
F Fm
You know that I have from the start
C
So build me up

Buttercup, don't break my heart
[Verse 1]
G C
"I'll be over at ten",
G A# F

But you're late, I wait around and then
C
I went to the door,
G A# F
I can't take any more
C F Em
It's not you, you let me down again
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm G F
Baby, baby, try to find
Em A7
A little time and I'll make you happy
F
I'll be home,
D7 G
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
[Chorus]
G C
Why do you build me up
E7
Butter cup, baby

And mess me around

When you say you will

But I love you still

Buttercup, don't break my heart
[Verse 2]
G C
To you, I'm a toy,
G A# F C
but I could be the boy you adore
F
If you'd just let me know
C
Although you're untrue,
G A# F C
I'm attracted to you all the more

Why do I need you so?
