(Capo on 2)

If I were a (Bm)boy (G) (D) even (A)just for a (Bm)day (G) (D)
(A)I'd roll out of (Bm)bed in the (G)morning and (D)throw on what I (A)wanted and (Bm)go (G) (D)

(A)Drink beer with the (Bm)guys (G) (D) and (A)chase after (Bm)girls (G) (D) (A)
I'd (Bm)kick it with who I (G)wanted and I'd (D)never get con-(A)fronted for it
(Bm) 'Cause they (G)stick up for me (D)

If (A)I were a (Bm)boy, (G) (D) I think I (A)could under-(Bm)stand (G) (D) (A)
How it (Bm)feels to love a (G)girl, I (D)swear I'd be a (A)better (Bm)man (G) (D)

And I'd (A)listen to (Bm)her, (G) (D) 'cause I (A)know how (Bm)it hurts (G) (D) (A)
When you (Bm)lose the one (G)you wanted, 'cause he's (D)takin' you (A)for granted
And (G)everything you had got destroyed

If I were a (Bm)boy, (G) (D) I would (A)turn off my (Bm)phone (G) (D) (A)
Tell (Bm)everyone it's (G)broken, so they'd (D)think that I was (A)sleepin' alone (Bm) (G) (D)

I'd (A)put myself (Bm)first (G) (D) and make the (A)rules as I (Bm)go (G) (D) (A)
'Cause I (Bm)know that she'll be (G)faithful, (D)waitin' for me (A) to come home,

(Bm) (G) to come home (D)

And if (A)I were a (Bm)boy, (G) (D) I think I (A)could under-(Bm)stand (G) (D) (A)
How it (Bm)feels to love a (G)girl, I (D)swear I'd be a (A) better (Bm)man (G) (D)

And I'd (A)listen to (Bm)her, (G) (D) 'cause I (A)know how (Bm)it hurts (G) (D) (A)
When you (Bm)lose the one you (G)wanted, 'cause he's (D)takin' you for (A)granted
And (G)everything you had got de-(D)stroyed

(Em) It's a (G)little too (Bm)late for (A)you to come (Em)back
Say it's (G)just a mistake, (Bm) think I'd for (A)give you like that
(Em) If you (G)thought I would (Bm)wait for (A)you, you thought wrong (G)

But you're just a (Bm)boy, (G) (D) you (A)don't under-(Bm)stand, you (G)don't under-(D/F#)stand (A)
Oh, how it (Bm)feels to love a (G)girl someday, you (D)wish you were a (A)better (Bm)man (G)
(D) Oh, you (A)don't listen to (Bm)her, (G) (D) and you don't (A)care how it (Bm)hurts (G) (D) (A)
Until you (Bm)lose the one you (G)wanted, 'cause you're (D)takin' her for (A)granted
And (G)everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy (Bm) (G) (D) (A) ---
