(D)If I were a boy,
I think I (D)could un der stand
how it (Em7)feels to love a (C)girl.
I (G)swear I’d be a (D)bet ter man.
I’d (D)lis ten to her
’cause I (D)know how it hurts
when you (Em7)lose the one you (C)want ed ’cause he’s (G)ta ken you for (D)grant ed and (C)ev ’ry thing you had got de stroyed.
If I were a boy,
