Key: A

Introduction:

                           Am   F   C 
If I were a boy
           G                   Am     F   C 
Even just for a day
                                 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 
I'd drink beer with the guys
         G                     Am         F   C 
And chase after girls
         Am                                 F 
I'd kick it with who I wanted
                 C                       G                             Am 
And I'd never get confronted for it
                             F                           C 
'Cause they'd stick up for me
 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, a better man
 G                       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'd think that I was sleeping alone
         G                     Am       F     C 
I'd put myself first
                           G               Am             F     C 
And make the rules as I go, oh oh
   G                     Am                                 F 
Oh, 'cause I know that she'd be faithful
 C                     G                       Am 
Waiting for me to come home
   F                       C 
Oh, to come home
               G               Am       F     C 
And if I were a boy
                     G               Am     F       C   G 
I think I would understand
               Am                           F 
How it feels to love a girl
     C                         G                           Am     F   C 
I swear I'd be a, oh, a better man
                 G                 Am     F   C 
And 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 taking you for granted
         F                                                 C                   Dm 
And everything you had got destroyed
               F                   Am               G                   Dm 
It's a little too late for you to come back
                   F                 Am                                 G                                   Dm 
Say it's just a mistake, think I'd forgive you like that
               F                               Am           G                                   F 
If you thought I would wait for you, you thought wrong
                                   Am   F     C 
But you're just a boy
         G               Am           F     C   G 
You don't understand
               Am                           F 
How it feels to love a girl someday
         C                             G                         Am   F   C 
You wish you were a, oh, a better man
                             G                   Am     F   C 
Oh, you don't listen to her
                             G               Am       F       C   G 
And you don't care how it hurts
                     Am                             F 
Until you lose the one you wanted
                             C                           G 
'Cause you're taking her for granted
         Dm7                                                 F 
And everything you had got destroyed
                                   Am   F     C   G 
But you're just a boy
