If I were a boy
     F#     C#          Ebm    B
even just for a day
     F#     C#        Ebm       B
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
     F#      C#       Ebm       B
and throw on what I wanted and go
     F#      C#       Ebm       B
Drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
and I'd never get confronted for it 
cause they stick up for me

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

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd think that I was sleeping alone

I’d put myself first
and make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’ll be faithful,
waiting for me to come home, to come home.

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

It's a little too late for you to come back
        B          F#        
Say it's just a mistake,
          C#                     Abm
think i'd forgive you like that
        B           F#                     C#  
If you thought I would wait for you
                       B
you thought wrong

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
and you don't understand, ohhhh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you 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're taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy
