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


Chorus:
 G
Boys will be, boys will be
 D                          A
Boys will be, boys will be boys
     Bm
But girls will be women
 G
Boys will be, boys will be
 D                          A
Boys will be, boys will be boys
     Bm
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
G            D
Oh, and they do what they see
             A
'Cause it's all on TV
                     Bm
Oh, the kids ain't alright


Chorus:
 G
Boys will be, boys will be
 D                          A
Boys will be, boys will be boys
     Bm
But girls will be women
 G
Boys will be, boys will be
 D                          A
Boys will be, boys will be boys
     Bm
But girls will be women



Bridge:
G              D              A
  If you're offended by this song
         Bm                     G
You're clearly doing something wrong
              D             A
If you're offended by this song
               A
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

No, the kids ain't alright
G            D
Oh, and they do what they see

Oh, the kids ain't alright
