Verse
Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C
Even just for a day
G Am F
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
C G Am F C
And throw on what I wanted and go
G Am F C
Drink beer with the guys
G Am F C G
And chase after girls
Am F
I'd kick it with who I wanted
C G
And I'd never get confronted for it
Am F C
'Cause they'd stick up for me
[Chorus]
G Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C G
I think I could understand
Am F
How it feels to love a girl
C G Am F C
I swear I'd be a better man
G Am F C
I'd listen to her
G Am F C G
Cause I know how it hurts
Am F
When you lose the one you wanted
C G
Cause he's taken you for granted
F
And everything you had got destroyed
[Verse 2]
Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C G
I would turn off my phone
Am F
Tell everyone it's broken
C G Am F C
So they think that I was sleeping alone
G Am F C
I'd put myself first
G Am F C G
And make the rules as I go
Am F
Cause I know that she'd be faithful
C G Am F C
Waiting for me to come home
[Chorus]
G Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C G
I think I could understand
Am F
How it feels to love a girl
C G Am F C
I swear I'd be a better man
G Am F C
I'd listen to her
G Am F C G
Cause I know how it hurts
Am F
When you lose the one you wanted
C G
Cause he's taken you for granted
F Dm7
And everything you had got destroyed
[Bridge]
Dm7 F C G Dm
It's a little too late for you to come back
F Am
Say it's just a mistake
G Dm
Think I forgive you like that
F Am G
If you thought I would wait for you

You thought wrong
[Verse 3]
Am F C
But you're just a boy
G Am F C G
You don't understand (yea you don't understand)
Am F
How it feels to love a girl, someday you'll
C G Am F C
Wish you were a.. better man
G Am F C
You don't listen to her
G Am F C
You don't care how it hurts
G Am F
Until you lose the one you wanted
C G
Cause you've taken her for granted
F
And everything you had got destroyed
Am F C G
But you're just a boy
