Why do you build me up (build me up) buttercup, baby
         F           F6   F           G
Just to let me down (let me down)and mess me around

And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby

When you say you will (say you will) but I love you still

But you're late, I wait around and then (bah-dah-dah)

I run to the door, I can't take anymore
