Build Me Up Buttercup Ukulele by Dodie

Build Me Up Buttercup Ukulele chords by Dodie

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Key: C

Difficulty: Novice

Chorus:
     C        E7
Why do you build me up, buttercup, baby
 F          G7
Just to let me down… and mess me around?
 C           E7
And then worst of all, you never call baby
 F           G7
When you say you will, but I love you still
 C           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

Verse:
     C   G     Bb      F
“I’ll be over at ten”, you tell me time and again
      C         Dm
But you’re late, I’m waiting round and then
 C      G       Bb     F
I go to the door, I can’t take it anymore
     C        G7
It’s not you, you let me down again

Pre-Chorus:
 G7     Dm
Baby, baby - try to find
Em         A7
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
G
Ooo-oo-oo-ooo Ooo-oo-oo-ooo

Chorus:
      C      E7
Why do you build me up, buttercup, baby
 F          G7
Just to let me down… and mess me around?
 C           E7
And then worst of all, you never call baby
 F           G7
When you say you will, but I love you still
 C           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

Verse:
   C   G     Bb      F
To you I’m a toy, but I could be the boy
      C        Dm
You adore, if you’d just let me know
 C      G       Bb     F
Although you’re untrue, I’m attracted to you
     C        G7
All the more… Why do I need you so?

Pre-Chorus:
 G7     Dm
Baby, baby - try to find
Em         A7
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
G
Ooo-oo-oo-ooo Ooo-oo-oo-ooo

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