Em   C9    G
If I were a boy
     D             Em    C9    G   D   
Even just for a day
         Em         C9
I?d roll out of bed in the morning
    G                D           Em   C9    G
And throw on what I wanted and go
D                       Em   C9    G
Drink beer with the guys
    D                Em   C9    G   D   
And chase after girls
         Em            C9
I?d kick it with who I wanted
    G             D   
And I?d never get confronted for it
Em             C9           G
Because they?d stick up for me
 
Chorus:
D              Em   C9    G
If I were a boy
        D                Em   C9    G   D   
I think I could understand
       Em            C9
How it feels to love a girl
  G              D          Em   C9    G
I swear I?d be a better man
D                Em   C9    G
I?d listen to her
        D              Em   C9    G   D   
Cause I know how it hurts
         Em           C9
When you lose the one you wanted
           G             D   
Cause he?s taken you for granted
    C
And everything you had got destroyed
 
Verse -same as first Verse-:
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone its broken
So they think
that I was sleeping alone
I?d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she?d be faithful
Waiting for me to come home
 
Chorus:
D              Em   C9    G
If I were a boy
        D                Em   C9    G   D   
I think I could understand
       Em            C9
How it feels to love a girl
  G              D          Em   C9    G
I swear I?d be a better man
D                Em   C9    G
I?d listen to her
        D              Em   C9    G   D   
Cause I know how it hurts
         Em           C9
When you lose the one you wanted
           G             D   
Cause he?s taken you for granted
    C9                           Em7  Am
And everything you had got destroyed
 
Bridge:
       C          G        D           Am
It?s a little too late for you to come back
        C         Em
Say its just a mistake
           D             Am
Think I forgive you like that
       C         Em                D   
If you thought I would wait for you
    C
You thought wrong
 
Chorus -same as previous Chorus-:
But you're just a boy
You don?t understand -yea you don?t understand-
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you?ll wish you were a better man
You don?t listen to her
You don?t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you've taken her for granted
    C
And everything you had got destroyed
 
Outro:
                     Em C9 G D   
But you're just a boy
