    • Verse 1
    Mr. 
    Backlash, 

    Mr. 
    Back
    lash 

    Just 
    who 
    do think 
    I am 

    You raise 
    my taxes, 

    freeze 
    my 
    wages 

    And send my 
    son 
    to 
    vietnam 

    Verse 2
    You give 
    me second 

    class houses 

    And second 
    class 
    schools 

    Do you 
    think that 
    all the colored 
    folk
    s 

    Are 
    just second 
    class 
    fools 

    Mr. Back
    lash, 
    I'm gonna 
    leave 
    you 

    With the 
    backlash 
    blues 

    Verse 3
    When I 
    try to find 
    a job 

    To 
    earn 
    a little cash 

    All 
    you got 
    to 
    offer

    Is 
    your mean 
    old white 
    back
    lash 

    But the 
    world 
    is big 

    Big 
    and bright 
    and round 

    And it's 
    full 
    of folks 
    like 
    me 

    Who 
    are black, 
    yellow, 
    beige 
    and brown 

    Mr. 
    Back
    lash, 

    I'm gonna 
    leave 
    you 

    With the 
    backlash 
    blues 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Mr. 
    Backlash, 
    Mr. 
    Backlash 

    Just 
    what do you 
    think I got 
    to lose 

    I'm 
    gonna leave 
    you 

    With the 
    backlash 
    blues 

    You're 
    the 
    one will 
    have the blues 

    Not 
    me, 
    just 
    wait 
    and 
    see

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      “I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.”

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      “I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      “I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      “Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      “This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      “It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      “I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
