Tim, wish you were born a girl,	F Am
Wish you were born a girl,	Bb
So I could've been your boyfriend.	A Gm
I know it's not possible now.	C Dm Bb
I just never met a girl I like half as much as you.	F C A Gm

And we could lay around in bed,	F Am
stay there all day,	Bb
Or at least until the afternoon	A Gm
And I could make you spaghetti with tomato sauce	C Dm Bb
With just a touch of oregano and a parsley stem.	F C A Gm

And then when you got sick,	F Am
I could take the day off work.	Bb
I could've made you chicken soup,	A Gm
And we could watch soap operas - oh, those TV dramas!	C Dm Bb
I could catch your cold and you could take care of me.	F C A Gm

Mmmmmm, if I could've met you at school, or met you at work,	Am F Bb
It would have changed everything.	Gm
Those years of losing, confusion and insecurity,	Am F Bb
They would have been shared,	Dm
they would have been easier.	A Gm

Oh Tim, wish you were born a girl,	F Am
Wish you were born a girl,	Bb
So I could've been your fiancée.	A Gm
I'm not saying you can't be all these things for me,	C Dm Bb
But it's just not the same because you're a man,	F C
and so am I.	F
