How to Play If I Were a Boy by Beyonce (Piano Tutorial)

I've been asked by so many people to make this piano tutorial by Beyonce and since I love her so much for being so musical and groovy yet gentle as she is I decided I'll make this tutorial with pleasure for you guys.

No background is needed here except from being familiar with the names of the notes. I'l explain how to play each and every chord clearly so give it a try.

Here's a useful free downloadable piano sheet of the accompaniment of the song as I explained it in the piano tutorial.

Here are the lyrics to the song:

If I were a boy even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted
And go drink beer with the guys

And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd 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, to come home

If I were a... chorus

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
And you don't understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you 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're taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
