Verse
C#m A E
If I were a boy
B C#m A E
Even just for a day
B C#m A
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
E B C#m A E
And throw on what I wanted and go
B C#m A E
Drink beer with the guys
B C#m A E B
And chase after girls
C#m A
I'd kick it with who I wanted
E B
And I'd never get confronted for it
C#m A E
'Cause they'd stick up for me
[Chorus]
B C#m A E
If I were a boy
B C#m A E B
I think I could understand
C#m A
How it feels to love a girl
E B C#m A E
I swear I'd be a better man
B C#m A E
I'd listen to her
B C#m A E B
Cause I know how it hurts
C#m A
When you lose the one you wanted
E B
Cause he's taken you for granted
A
And everything you had got destroyed
[Verse 2]
C#m A E
If I were a boy
B C#m A E B
I would turn off my phone
C#m A
Tell everyone it's broken
E B C#m A E
So they think that I was sleeping alone
B C#m A E
I'd put myself first
B C#m A E B
And make the rules as I go
C#m A
Cause I know that she'd be faithful
E B C#m A E
Waiting for me to come home
[Chorus]
B C#m A E
If I were a boy
B C#m A E B
I think I could understand
C#m A
How it feels to love a girl
E B C#m A E
I swear I'd be a better man
B C#m A E
I'd listen to her
B C#m A E B
Cause I know how it hurts
C#m A
When you lose the one you wanted
E B
Cause he's taken you for granted
A F#m7
And everything you had got destroyed
[Bridge]
F#m7 A E B F#m
It's a little too late for you to come back
A C#m
Say it's just a mistake
B F#m
Think I forgive you like that
A C#m B
If you thought I would wait for you
A
You thought wrong
[Verse 3]
C#m A E
But you're just a boy
B C#m A E B
You don't understand (yea you don't understand)
C#m A
How it feels to love a girl, someday you'll
E B C#m A E
Wish you were a.. better man
B C#m A E
You don't listen to her
B C#m A E
You don't care how it hurts
B C#m A
Until you lose the one you wanted
E B
Cause you've taken her for granted
A
And everything you had got destroyed
C#m A E B
But you're just a boy
