[Intro] D#m  B  F#  C#

[Primeira Parte]

         D#m   B    F#     C#        D#m   B  F#
If I were a boy         even just for a day
C#           D#m        B
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
  F#         C#       D#m    B  F#
And throw on what I wanted then go
    C#        D#m    B  F#
Drink beer with the guys
  C#      D#m     B    F# C#
And chase after girls
       D#m         B
I’d kick it with who I wanted
     F#       C#        D#m
And I’d never get confronted for it
       B         F#
Cause they’d stick up for me

[Refrão]

     C#   D#m     B    F#         C#       D#m   B   F# C#
If I were a boy         I think I could understand
   D#m             B
How it feels to love a girl
  F#         C#      D#m     B  F#
I swear I’d be a better ma...n
   C#        D#m     B   F#      C#     D#m      B   F#
I’d listen to her        cause I know how it hurts
C#       D#m          B
   When you lose the one you wanted
      F#        C#
Cause he’s taken you for granted
  B
And everything you had got destroyed

[Segunda Parte]

         D#m   B   F#    C#       D#m   B F#
If I were a boy I could turn off my phone
C#         D#m        B
Tell everyone it’s broken
  F#          C#        D#m    B  F#
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
     C#        D#m     B  F#
I’d put myself first and make the rules as I go
  C#       D#m   B  F#   C#
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
      D#m         B
Waitin’ for me to come home (come home)

   D#m             B
How it feels to love a girl

G#m          B        F#      C#      G#m
  It’s a little too late for you to come back
     B       D#m
Say its just a mistake
          C#           G#m
Think I’d forgive you like that
     B           D#m    C#
If you thought I would wait for you
       B
You thought wron.....g

[Refrão]

                  D#m  B  F#
But you're just a boy
 C#              D#m   B   F# C#
You don't understand (And, you don't understand, oh)
        D#m             B
How it feels to love a girl someday
    F#         C#      D#m     B  F#
You wish you were a better ma...n
   C#                D#m  B  F#   
You don't listen to her
                 C#          D#m  B  F#
Cause You don't care how it hurts
C#            D#m          B
   Until you lose the one you wanted
      F#        C#
Cause you're taking her for granted
  B
And everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
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'd 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 taken 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'd 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 taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But you're just a boy
And you don't understand
(And you don't understand, oh)
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
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
