Reba McEntire - If I Were A Boy
CAPO: 4th Fret
Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C
Even just for a day
Am F
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
C G Am F C
And throw on what I wanted and go
G Am F C
I'd drink beer with the guys
G Am F C
And chase after girls
Am F
I'd kick it with who I wanted
C G Am
And I'd never get confronted for it
F C
'Cause they'd stick up for me
CHORUS:
G Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C G
I think I could understand
Am F
How it feels to love a girl
C G Am F C
I swear I'd be a, a better man
G Am F C
If I were a boy
G Am F C G
I would turn off my phone
Am F
Tell everyone it's broken
C G Am F C
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
G Am F C
I'd put myself first
G Am F C
And make the rules as I go, oh oh
G Am F
Oh, 'cause I know that she'd be faithful
C G Am
Waiting for me to come home
F C
Oh, to come home
CHORUS:
G Am F C
And if I were a boy
G Am F C G
I think I would understand
Am F
How it feels to love a girl
C G Am F C
I swear I'd be a, oh, a better man
G Am F C
And I'd listen to her
G Am F C G
'Cause I know how it hurts
Am F
When you lose the one you wanted
C G
'Cause he's taking you for granted
F C Dm
And everything you had got destroyed
BRIDGE:
F Am G Dm
It's a little too late for you to come back
F Am G Dm
Say it's just a mistake, think I'd forgive you like that
F Am G F
If you thought I would wait for you, you thought wrong
CHORUS:
N.C. Am F C
But you're just a boy
G Am F C G
You don't understand
Am F
How it feels to love a girl someday
C G Am F C
You wish you were a, oh, a better man
G Am F C
Oh, you don't listen to her
G Am F C G
And you don't care how it hurts
Am F
Until you lose the one you wanted
C G
'Cause you're taking her for granted
Dm7 F
And everything you had got destroyed
OUTRO:
N.C. Am F C G
But you're just a boy
