[Verse]
Bb7
Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
Bb7                Bb7#5
Just who do think I am
Eb7
You raise my taxes, freeze my wages
Eb7
And send my son to vietnam
 
[Verse]
Eb7
You give me second class houses
Bb7
And second class schools
Bb7
Do you think that all the colored folks
Bb7
Are just second class fools
F7            Eb7
Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
Bb7                        Eb7 E7 F7
With the backlash blues
 
[Bridge]
Bb7
When I try to find a job
Bb7
To earn a little cash
Bb7
All you got to offer
Bb7
Is your mean old white backlash
Eb7
But the world is big
Big and bright and round
Bb7
And it's full of folks like me
Bb7
Who are black, yellow, beige and brown
F7            Eb7
Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
Bb7                        Eb7 E7 F7
With the backlash blues

Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash

Just what do you think I got to lose
Eb7
I'm gonna leave you
Eb7
With the backlash blues

You're the one will have the blues
Eb7                    Bb7  Eb7 Bb7 Bb9
Not me, just wait and see
