[Intro 1]
[A][Bb][A][Bb][C][Bb][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Backfired
[Bb]Your plan,
[C]your plan bac[D]kfired[Bb][C]
[D]Backfired
[Bb]My man, your[C] plan back[D]fired
in your [Bb]face[C]

[Verse 2]
You came [D]into my life to test me
Your diplomatic drag depressed me
The glitter in your eyes undressed me
[C]You were [D]polished slick
Really thick
Wasting time dropping lines like
"I could get you into movies"

[Verse 3]
But we [A]wound [Bb]up at H[C]ot J[Bb]o's
for [A]hamburgers to [D]go

[Verse 4]
Backfired
[Bb]Your plan [C]back[D]fired[Bb][C]
[D]Backfired
[Bb]My man, your plan [C]back[D]fired
in your [Bb]face[C]

[Verse 5]
[D]To steal my mind was your objective
The way you spoke was too aggressive
The silly jokes were not impressive
[C]Like "A [D]travelling salesman met a
farmer with three daughters", yet
All the quips were so suggestive

[Verse 6]
Then we [A]ran [Bb]down to [C]Hot [Bb]Jo's
for [A]hamburgers to [D]go

[Verse 7]
Backfired
Your [C]plan [D]backfired[Bb][C]
[D]Backfired
[Bb]My m[C]an,
your plan [D]backfired in your [Bb]face[C]

[Verse 8]
Well, come [D]here my little dear,
I've got what it takes
Give me just what I want and I'll
give you [C]a break
Well, don't [D]slip on your lips
cause you're talking so fast
Buying for first, crying for last
Well come on my little lady,
don't shoot me down
I've got strong connections all over town
Just drop to a [C]dead stop
[D](what?)

[Verse 9]
[Bb]Backfired
Your [C]plan [D]backfired[Bb][C]
Back[D]fired
[Bb]My man,
[C]your plan [D]backfired [Bb]in y[C]our face

[Verse 10]
You were pol[D]ished slick. Really thick
Wast[Bb]ing [C]time dropping lines
[D]Backfired[Bb][C]

[Verse 11]
[D]"A travelling salesman met [Bb]a farmer
[C]with three daughters", yet
[D]Backfired[Bb][C]

[Verse 12]

[Bb]Your [C]plan [D]backfired
[Bb]Couldn't work [Am]out [C]no[D]

[C]
Better [D]get a new line and try it again
[Bb]Slick performance [C]on demand
[D]Backfired[Bb][C]
[D]You better back up fast
and head out west
[Bb]You may still [C]collect
[D]Backfired[Bb][Am][C]

[Verse 13]
Well, come [D]here my little dear,
I've got what it takes
Give me just what I want and I'll
give you [C]a break
Well, [D]don't slip on your lips cause
you're talking so fast
Buying for first, crying for last
Well come on my little lady,
don't shoot me down
I've got strong connections all over town
Just drop to a dead stop
