Beyonce-If I were a boy(lyrics) chords
Start Jamming...
[G] If I were [D#m] a boy, [B] [F#] [C#] even just [D#m] for a day, [B] [F#] [C#] I'd roll [D#m] out of [B] bed in the morning [F#] and throw on [C#] what I wanted [D#m] and go.
[B] [F#] Music on [C#] demand.
Drink beer with [D#m] the [B] guys [F#] [C#] and chase [D#m] after [B] girls.
[F#] [C#] [F#] I'd kick it with [B] who I wanted [F#] and I'd never [C#] be confronted [F#] for it, [B] cause they'd stick up [F#] for me.
[C#] If I were [D#m] a
[B] [F#] boy, I [C#] think [D#m]
[B] [F#] [C#] [D#m] I would feel to [B] love a girl.
[F#] I swear I'd [C#] be a better [F#]
[B] man.
[F#] [C#] I'd listen [D#m] to her.
[B] [F#] [C#] [D#m]
[B] When [F#] [C#] [D#m] you lose the [B] one you wanted, [F#] cause he's taking [C#] you for granted.
[B] And everything you had got [D#m] destroyed.
If I were a boy, [B] [F#] I [G#] would turn off [F#] my phone, [B] [F#] [C#] [F#] tell everyone [B] it's broken, [F#] so they'd think [C#] that I was sleeping [D#m] alone.
[B] [F#] [C#] I'd put [D#m] myself [B] first [F#] and [C#] make the rules as [F#] I go, [B] [F#] [C#] [D#m] cause I know that [B] she'd be faithful, [F#] waiting [C#] for me to [D#m] come [B] home.
[F#] [C#] If I were [D#m] a boy, [B] [F#] I [C#] think I could [D#m]
[B] understand.
[F#] [C#] I [D#m] would feel to [B] love a girl.
[F#] I swear I'd [C#] be a better [D#m] man.
[B] [F#] [C#] I'd listen [D#m] to her, [B] [F#] [C#] cause I know [D#m] her.
[B] [F#] [C#] [D#m] When you lose the [B] one you wanted, [F#] cause he's taking [C#] you for granted.
[F#] And everything you had got destroyed.
[G#m]
[B] It's a little [F#] too late [C#] for you to [G#m] come back.
[B] Say it's just a [D#m] mistake to think [C#] I'd forgive you [G#m] like that.
[B] If you thought I [D#m] would wait for [C#] you, you [B] thought wrong.
[C#] [F#] But you're just [D#m] a boy, [B] [F#] [C#] you don't [F#] understand.
Oh, you don't understand.
[C#]
[D#m] Oh, it feels to [B] love a girl.
[F#] Someday you wish you [C#] were a better [D#m] man.
[B] [F#] [C#] You don't listen [D#m] to her.
[B] [F#] [C#] You don't care.
[D#m] [B] [F#] It hurts.
[C#]
[D#m] Until you lose the [B] one you wanted, [F#] cause you're taking [C#] her for granted.
[F#] And everything you had got [G#m] destroyed.
[F#]
But you're just a [B] boy.
