[Chorus]

     Am
Back chat back chat
    C
You burn all my energy
     Dm
Back chat back chat
Criticizing all you see
     Am
Back chat back chat
   C
Analysing what I say
     Dm
Back chat back chat
And you always get your way


[Verse 2]

     Am
Back chat back chat
     C
It's driving me insane
   Dm
Survival to the end
Knock you down you come again
     Am
Talk back talk back
       C
You've got me on the wrack
         Dm
Twisting ev'ry word I say
Wind me up and get your way
    Am               C    
Fat chance I have of making a romance
       Dm
If I'm ever goin' to win
Have to get the last word in
Am             C          D
Twisting ev'ry word I say Huh!
F              G  
Wind me up and let me play


[Chorus]

     Am
Back chat back chat
    C
You burn all my energy
     Dm
Back chat back chat
Criticizing all you see
     Am
Back chat back chat
   C
Analysing what I say
     Dm
Back chat back chat
And you always get your way


[Verse 3]

     Am
Wake up stand up
    C
And drag yourself on out
    Dm
Get down get ready
Scream and shout
     Am
Back off me be cool
    C
And learn to change your ways
              Dm
'Cause you're talking in your sleep
And you're walking in a daze
      Am
Don't push your luck
    C
I'm ready to attack
                Dm
'Cause when I'm trying to talk to you
All you do is just talk back
    Am                      C
You stand so tall you don't frighten me at all
           Dm
Don't talk back don't talk back
Don't talk back just leave me alone


[Chorus]

     Am
Back chat back chat
    C
You burn all my energy
     Dm
Back chat back chat
Criticizing all you see
     Am
Back chat back chat
   C
Analysing what I say
     Dm
Back chat back chat
And you always get your way
