C
I wish I were a boy
not all the time, just sometimes
F
I wish I could put on eyeliner and glitter and actually look good
C
and have girls whisper about me in bookshops because I look like a character from their favorite book
F
and I wish I were a boy
C
with dark fluffy hair that I love to mess up, and shake, and makes everyone stop and stare
and I wish I were a boy
F C
so I would finally look cute in dresses and skirts and pants and suits
F
and I wish I were a boy
with a deep rock and roll voice
that makes people stop in their tracks
N.C.
but I don't have that choice
C F
and I wish that I did because every song I write for myself never sounds right
because it was meant to be sung by somebody else
C F
I'm happy being me but sometimes I wonder
C
what I would be like as the opposite gender
