Beyonce - If I Were A Boy Chords

[verse 1]
               Ebm   B    Gb
If I were a boy
     Db          Ebm    B    Gb
Even just for a day
Db               Ebm         B
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
    Gb
And throw on what I
 Db           Ebm   B    Gb
wanted and go
      Db               Ebm  B  Gb
Drink beer with the guys
    Db                Ebm  B  Gb  Db
And chase after girls
         Ebm            B
I'd kick it with who I wanted
        Gb             Db
And I'd never get confronted for it
Ebm              B              Gb
  'Cause they'd stick up for me

[chorus]
   Db          Ebm   B    Gb
If I were a boy
          Db             Ebm  B  Gb  Db
I think I could understand
       Ebm              B
How it feels to love a girl
  Gb              Db     Ebm  B  Gb
I swear I'd be a better man
    Db           Ebm   B    Gb
I'd listen to her
        Db              Ebm  B  Gb  Db
Cause I know how it hurts
         Ebm               B
When you lose the one you wanted
           Gb             Db
Cause he's taken you for granted
    B
And everything you had got destroyed

[verse 2]
               Ebm   B    Gb
If I were a boy
        Db              Ebm  B  Gb  Db
I would turn off my phone
     Ebm            B
Tell everyone it's broken
        Gb
So they think that I was
Db           Ebm  B  Gb
sleeping alone
    Db             Ebm    B    Gb
I'd put myself first
             Db          Ebm  B  Gb  Db
And make the rules as I go
        Ebm              B
Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Gb            Db       Ebm   B  Gb
Waiting for me to come home

[chorus]
   Db          Ebm   B    Gb
If I were a boy
          Db            Ebm  B  Gb  Db
I think I could understand
       Ebm              B
How it feels to love a girl
  Gb            Db       Ebm  B  Gb
I swear I'd be a better man
    Db           Ebm   B    Gb
I'd listen to her
        Db              Ebm  B  Gb  Db
Cause I know how it hurts
         Ebm               B
When you lose the one you wanted
           Gb             Db
Cause he's taken you for granted
    B                           Abm7
And everything you had got destroyed

[bridge]
Abm7       B            Gb      Db
   It's a little too late for you
         Abm
to come back
         B         Ebm
Say it's just a mistake
           Db             Abm
Think I forgive you like that
          B              Ebm         Db
If you thought I would wait for you
            B
You thought wrong

[verse 3]
                  Ebm   B    Gb
But you're just a boy
          Db       Ebm
You don't understand (yea you
B          Gb     Db
don't understand)
         Ebm              B
How it feels to love a girl, someday you'll
Gb              Db         Ebm  B   Gb
Wish you were a.. better man
            Db        Ebm   B   Gb
You don't listen to her
          Db             Ebm   B   Gb
You don't care how it hurts
Db           Ebm             B
  Until you lose the one you wanted
                Gb                 Db
Cause you've taken her for granted
    B
And everything you had got destroyed
                   Ebm  B   Gb   Db
But you're just a boy
