Boys Will Be Boys chords by Dua Lipa

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
 G             D
It's second nature to walk home before the sun goes down
 A               Bm
And put your keys between your knuckles when there's  boys around
G           D
Isn't it funny how we laugh it off to hide our fear
 A                Bm
When there's nothing funny here? (Ah)
 G             D
Sick intuition that they taught us, so we won't freak out
A              Bm
We hide our figures, doing anything to shut their mouths
G              D
We smile away to ease the tension so it don't go south
A                Bm
 But there's nothing funny now (Ah)

Pre-Chorus:
 G      D
When will we stop saying things?
        A
'Cause they're all listening
     Bm
No, the kids ain't alright
G      D
Oh, and they do what they see
       A
'Cause it's all on TV
           Bm
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be boys

But girls will be women


Verse 2:
 G                 D
I'm sure if there's something that I can't find the words to say
A                     Bm
I know that there will be a man around to save the day
 G            D
And that was sarcasm, in case you needed it mansplained
A              Bm
I should've stuck to ballet (Ah)


Pre-Chorus:
 G      D
When will we stop saying things?
        A
'Cause they're all listening
     Bm
No, the kids ain't alright

Oh, and they do what they see
       A
'Cause it's all on TV
           Bm
Oh, the kids ain't alright

 If you're offended by this song
     Bm           G
You're clearly doing something wrong

If you're offended by this song

Then you're probably saying
N.C.
Boys will be, boys will be
N.C.
Boys will be, boys will be boys
N.C.
But girls will be women
