If I Were A Boy(Chords)

	        



             Am  F  C 
If I were a boy 
     G          Am   F  C 
Even just for a day 
                Am         F 
I'd roll out of bed in the morning 
    C               G          Am   F  C            
And throw on what I wanted and go 


    G                   Am    F  C 
I'd drink beer with the guys 
    G           Am     F  C 
And chase after girls 
    Am                 F  
I'd kick it with who I wanted 
        C            G               Am 
And I'd never get confronted for it 
              F              C  
'Cause they'd stick up for me  


 
G           Am   F   C 
If I were a boy  
          G          Am     F   C  G 
I think I could understand  
       Am              F  
How it feels to love a girl 
  C              G         Am   F  C 
I swear I'd be a, a better man 


G            Am   F   C 
If I were a boy  
        G        Am       F   C  G 
I would turn off my phone 
     Am            F  
Tell everyone it's broken 
          C                G             Am  F   C 
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone 



    G           Am    F   C 
I'd put myself first  
             G        Am       F   C 
And make the rules as I go, oh oh 
 G           Am                 F  
Oh, 'cause I know that she'd be faithful  
C           G            Am 
Waiting for me to come home  
 F            C 
Oh, to come home 



       G        Am    F   C 
And if I were a boy 
          G        Am   F    C  G 
I think I would understand  
       Am              F  
How it feels to love a girl 
  C             G              Am   F  C 
I swear I'd be a, oh, a better man 


        G         Am   F  C 
And I'd listen to her 
         G       Am     F    C  G 
'Cause I know how it hurts 
         Am               F  
When you lose the one you wanted 
            C              G    
'Cause he's taking you for granted 
    F                         C          Dm 
And everything you had got destroyed 



Bridge: 
       F          Am        G          Dm 
It's a little too late for you to come back 
         F         Am                 G                  Dm 
Say it's just a mistake, think I'd forgive you like that 
       F                Am      G                  F 
If you thought I would wait for you, you thought wrong 


 
N.C.                Am  F   C 
But you're just a boy 
    G        Am      F   C  G 
You don't understand 
       Am              F  
How it feels to love a girl someday 
    C               G             Am  F  C 
You wish you were a, oh, a better man 



              G          Am   F  C 
Oh, you don't listen to her   
              G        Am    F    C  G 
And you don't care how it hurts 
          Am               F  
Until you lose the one you wanted  
              C              G    
'Cause you're taking her for granted 
    Dm7                         F     
And everything you had got destroyed 


OUTRO: 
N.C.                Am  F   C  G 
But you're just a boy
