[Verse 1]
C        C7       F        D9/F#
Hey everybody wherever you are
              C          C7               F        D9/F#
They've got a new way of talking and it's gonna go far
             C              C7     F             D9/F#
You take the letters in the words, turn 'em all around
        C        C7        F             D9/F#
Say the last one first and check out the sound

     Am         G  F  E

Am  G  F  E
 
[Verse 2]
  C                C7                F      D9/F#
I know what you're thinking, it sure sounds strange
           C          C7             F       D9/F#
You talked forward so long that it's hard to change
         C         C7              F       D9/F#
But it's just like metric once you get the drift
    C          C7                   F        D9/F#
You twist your tongue and give your palate a lift
 
[Verse 3]
              C        C7      F              D9/F#
You take your favorite phrase, read it in the mirror
C        C7           F      D9/F#
Practice that about a half a year
         C         C7         F     D9/F#
And then sdrawkcab gnikiat mI em ta kool
         C       C7      F            D9/F#
You're a regular talking bassackwards fool
 
[Chorus]
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
C  C7  F  D9/F#  G  C
 
[Verse 4]
C       C7           F            D9/F#
Talking backwards is sweeping the nation
C       C7               F      D9/F#
Talking backwards is the new sensation
     C         C7               F        D9/F#
You amaze your friends when you start to rap
          C        C7          F          D9/F#
Don't say pass the butter, say rettub eht ssap
C          C7    F          D9/F#
Rettub eht ssap? Rettub eht ssap
 
[Verse 5]
              C          C7               F          D9/F#
And if you're out with a girl and she's a little bit shy
          C      C7       F        D9/F#
Don't say I love you; say Uoy evol I
C        C7      F      D9/F#
uoy evol I and I always will
     C           C7           F       D9/F#
Now, see if that doesn't take off the chill
 
[Chorus]
     Am         G  F  E
Talk Backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
C  C7  F  D9/F#  G  C
 
[Verse 6]
    C     C7        F                D9/F#
The other day I was walking down the street
C                   C7                 F       D9/F#
There's this little girl I thought I'd like to meet
         C        C7          F            D9/F#
I said excuse me, Miss, sserd taht teg uoy erehw
C        C7       F        D9/F#
zert dat tat tat diggie roy srat see milly ra
C        C7       F        D9/F#
eedie roy tes too dong dee bet
           C    C7      F              D9/F#
And I said am I getting through to you yet?
         C        C7          F       D9/F#
She said you're a gent in the first degree
      C            C7       F            D9/F#
And I love it when you talk backwards to me
 
[Chorus]
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
C  C7  F  D9/F#  G  C
 
[Verse 5]
    C         C7        F          D9/F#
You never can tell, but one of the nights
C              C7               F          D9/F#
Those who talk backwards will demand their rights
        C       C7        F        D9/F#
They'll rise up angry and get a solution
       C           C7              F     D9/F#
In the form of an amendment to the constitution
     C              C7           F        D9/F#
That guarantees 'em freedom of reverse elocution
         C     C7   F         D9/F#
And then every T.V. show that airs
     C          C7                F         D9/F#
Will have to be captioned for the forward impaired
 
[Chorus]
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
 
[Outro]
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
 
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
 
     Am         G  F  E
Talk backwards
 
Am  G  F  E
 
C  C7  F  D9/F#  G7  C
