Why do you bu[C]ild me up (Build me up) b[E]uttercup, [E7]baby
Just to l[F]et me down (Let me down) and m[G]ess me around
And then wo[C]rst of all (Worst of all) you [E]never [E7]call, baby
When you s[F]ay you will (Say you will) but [G]I love you still
I need y[C]ou (I need you) more than a[Bb]nyone, darlin'
You k[F]now that I have from the start
So b[C]uild me up (Build me up) b[G]uttercup, don't break my [F]heart   [G]
Verse:
I'll be o[C]ver at t[G]en, you told me [Bb]time and [F]again
But you're l[C]ate, I wait ar[F]ound and then (Bah-dah-dah)
I r[C]un to the d[G]oor, I can't t[Bb]ake any [F]more
It's not y[C]ou, you let me d[F]own again

Bridge:
(Hey, hey, hey!) [Dm]Baby, baby, t[G]ry to find
(Hey, hey, hey!)[Em7] A little time, and I[A]'ll make you happy
(Hey, hey, hey!) [F]I'll be home
I'll be [D7]beside the phone waiting for y[G]ou

Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo

(Chorus)

Verse 2:
To y[C]ou I'm a t[G]oy but I co[Bb]uld be the b[F]oy you a[C]dore
If you'd just l[F]et me know (Bah-dah-dah)
[C]Although you're unt[G]rue, I'm attr[Bb]acted to y[F]ou all the m[C]ore
Why do I n[F]eed you so

Bridge:
(Hey, hey, hey!) [Dm]Baby, baby, t[G]ry to find
(Hey, hey, hey!)[Em7] A little time, and I[A]'ll make you happy
(Hey, hey, hey!) [F]I'll be home
I'll be [D7]beside the phone waiting for y[G]ou

Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo


(Chorus)

I need y[D]ou (I need you) more than an[C]yone, baby
You k[G]now that I have from the start

(Fade out)

This wasn't the Temptations. I'm tired of people assuming all music from the Doo Wop or early R&B years are songs sung by the Temptations. The Foundations sung this song. Do some research before you put your idiocy out there for the world to see.

I think after the F at the end of the chorus there's a Fm:

F Fm
You know that I have from the start
