Verse: Em C9 G If I were a boy D Em C9 G D Even just for a day Em C9 I’d roll out of bed in the morning G D Em C9 G And throw on what I wanted and go D Em C9 G Drink beer with the guys D Em C9 G D And chase after girls Em C9 I’d kick it with who I wanted G D And I’d never get confronted for it Em C9 G Because they’d stick up for me Chorus: D Em C9 G If I were a boy D Em C9 G D I think I could understand Em C9 How it feels to love a girl G D Em C9 G I swear I’d be a better man D Em C9 G I’d listen to her D Em C9 G D Cause I know how it hurts Em C9 When you lose the one you wanted G D Cause he’s taken you for granted C And everything you had got destroyed Verse (same as first verse): If I were a boy I would turn off my phone Tell everyone its broken So they think that I was sleeping alone I’d put myself first And make the rules as I go Cause I know that she’d be faithful Waiting for me to come home Chorus: D Em C9 G If I were a boy D Em C9 G D I think I could understand Em C9 How it feels to love a girl G D Em C9 G I swear I’d be a better man D Em C9 G I’d listen to her D Em C9 G D Cause I know how it hurts Em C9 When you lose the one you wanted G D Cause he’s taken you for granted C9 Em7 Am And everything you had got destroyed Bridge: C G D Am It’s a little too late for you to come back C Em Say its just a mistake D Am Think I forgive you like that C Em D If you thought I would wait for you C You thought wrong Chorus (same as previous chorus): But you're just a boy You don’t understand (yea you don’t understand) How it feels to love a girl Someday you’ll 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 C And everything you had got destroyed Outro: Em C9 G D But you're just a boy This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

7 ukulele chords used in "If I Were A Boy" by Beyoncé: Am, C, C9, D, Em, Em7 and G
just do c9 on third fret 🙂
WOT in TaRnAtIoN? C9??
I think a C5 sounds really nice in place of the C9. (Third fret first and second strings (A and E).)
Wouldn’t it be Em, C, G, D It sounds better. Just wanna help out 🙂
Can i recommend a C instead of a C9
The strum pattern on this is hard to figure out. Great song though.
+5 easier
C works fore me
-1 works best for me
you can also just play c,g,am, f………. just a suggestion
C sounds much better than C9
I play with C instead of C9
agreed ^^^
I think Em,C,G n D is better.. C9 sounds so weird tho 0.o
yeah C works better
It’s cadd9, not c9
C9 sounds perfect to me, playing third string 3rd fret And 4th string 3rd fret
I agree with Missruncia, but overall it’s great!
C9 is off .. are you sure ?
