[Verse]
               Bm  G  D
If I were a boy
     A             Bm  G  D
Even just for a day
A               Bm         G
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
    D               A           Bm  G  D
And throw on what I wanted and go


[Verse]
      A               Bm  G  D
Drink beer with the guys
    A                Bm  G  D  A
And chase after girls
         Bm            G
I'd kick it with who I wanted
        D             A
And I'd never get confronted for it
Bm              G             D
  'Cause they'd stick up for me


[Chorus]
   A          Bm  G  D
If I were a boy
          A             Bm  G  D  A
I think I could understand
       Bm              G
How it feels to love a girl
  D              A          Bm  G  D
I swear I'd be a better man
    A           Bm  G  D
I'd listen to her
        A              Bm  G  D  A
Cause I know how it hurts
         Bm               G
When you lose the one you wanted
           D             A
Cause he's taken you for granted
    G
And everything you had got destroyed


[Verse]
               Bm  G  D
If I were a boy
        A              Bm  G  D  A
I would turn off my phone
     Bm            G
Tell everyone it's broken
        D                A           Bm  G  D
So they think that I was sleeping alone
    A             Bm  G  D
I'd put myself first
             A          Bm  G  D  A
And make the rules as I go
        Bm              G
Cause I know that she'd be faithful
D            A          Bm  G  D
Waiting for me to come home


[Chorus]
   A          Bm  G  D
If I were a boy
          A            Bm  G  D  A
I think I could understand
       Bm              G
How it feels to love a girl
  D              A          Bm  G  D
I swear I'd be a better man
    A           Bm  G  D
I'd listen to her
        A              Bm  G  D  A
Cause I know how it hurts
         Bm               G
When you lose the one you wanted
           D             A
Cause he's taken you for granted
    G
And everything you had got destroyed


[Bridge]
           G         D        A           Bm
    It's a little too late for you to come back
         G        D
Say it's just a mistake
           A             Bm
Think I forgive you like that
          G             D         A
If you thought I would wait for you
              Bm~
You thought wrong


[Chorus 2]
                  Bm  G  D
But you're just a boy
    A           Bm            G          D     A
You don't understand (yea you don't understand)
       Bm              G
How it feels to love a girl, someday you'll
D              A            Bm  G  D
Wish you were a.. better man
             A      Bm  G  D
You don't listen to her
          A           Bm   G  D  A
You don't care how it hurts
          Bm               G
Until you lose the one you wanted
             D             A
Cause you've taken her for granted
    G                     \
And everything you had got destroyed


[Outro]
                     Bm  G  D  A
But you're just a boy
