         {And just repeat it...} 

            Em7  C  G 
If I were a boy 
            D          Em7  C  G 
I think I could understand 
 D               Em7        C 
How it feels to love a girl 
 G                 D       Em7  C  G 
I swear I?d be a better man. 
     D           Em7  C  G 
I?d listen to her 
        D             Em7  C  G 
Cause I know how it hurts 
D                 Em7        C 
When you lose the one you wanted 
             G           D 
Cause he?s taken you for granted 
        Em7          C            G     D 
And everything you had got destroyed


{VERSE II} 
If I were a boy 
I could turn off my phone 
Tell evveryone it?s broken 
So they?d think that I was sleepin? alone 
I?d put myself first 
And make the rules as I go 
Cause I know that she?d be faithful 
Waitin? for me to come home (to come home) 

{CHORUS} 

{BRIDGE} 
Em7       C         G       D           Em7 
It?s a little too late for you to come back 
         C            G 
Say its just a mistake 
              D                 Em7 
Think I?d forgive you like that 
          C              G          D 
If you thought I would wait for you 
               Em7 
You thought wrong 

{CHORUS} 

  { PLAY THE PLUCKING THEN STRUMMING } 

But you?re just a boy 
You don?t understand 
Yeah you don?t understand 
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?ve taken her for granted 
And everything you have got destroyed 
But you?re just a boy
