If I Were A Boy

[Verse]
               G#m  E  B
If I were a boy
     F#             G#m  E  B
Even just for a day
F#               G#m         E
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
    B               F#           G#m  E  B
And throw on what I wanted and go


[Verse]
      F#               G#m  E  B
Drink beer with the guys
    F#                G#m  E  B  F#
And chase after girls
         G#m            E
I'd kick it with who I wanted
        B         
  And I'd never get
     F#
confronted for it
G#m              E             B
  'Cause they'd stick up for me


[Chorus]
   F#          G#m  E  B
If I were a boy
          F#             G#m  E  B  F#
I think I could understand
       G#m              E
How it feels to love a girl
  B              F#          G#m  E  B
I swear I'd be a better man
    F#           G#m  E  B
I'd listen to her
        F#              G#m  E  B  F#
Cause I know how it hurts
         G#m               E
When you lose the one you wanted
           B             F#
Cause he's taken you for granted
    E  
And everything you

had got destroyed


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


[Chorus]
   F#          G#m  E  B
If I were a boy
          F#            G#m  E  B  F#
I think I could understand
       G#m              E
How it feels to love a girl
  B              F#          G#m  E  B
I swear I'd be a better man
    F#           G#m  E  B
I'd listen to her
        F#              G#m  E  B  F#
Cause I know how it hurts
         G#m               E
When you lose the one you wanted
           B             F#
Cause he's taken you for granted
    E  
And everything you

had got destroyed


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


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


[Outro]
                     G#m  E  B  F#
But you're just a boy
