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