C        G      Dm   F
I love going to movies all alone
          C          G         Dm    F
I’ll show up to your party all on my own
        C       G       Dm     F
I don’t need anybody to set me free
      C           G         F
But I love when a boy loves me
      C            G         Dm   F
I can dance to the music all by myself
        C          G          Dm    F
I don’t need your opinions up on my shelf
    C      G          Dm    F
I’m as independent as I can be
      C           G         F
But I love when a boy loves me


[Chorus]
      F        C               G            Am
Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
    F        C           G          Am
And I can be tough I can thicken my skin
      F           C            G       Am
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
      C           G         F  C
But I love when a boy loves me


[Verse 2]
      C          G            Dm          F
I can circle the Earth do the things I’ve dreamt
        C             G           Dm     F
Yeah, I know what I’m worth I can pay my rent
      C          G           Dm    F
I can live out a life like a movie scene
      C           G         F
But I love when a boy loves me


[Chorus]
      F        C               G            Am
Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
    F        C           G          Am
And I can be tough I can thicken my skin
      F           C            G       Am
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
      C           G         Am  F
But I love when a boy loves me
     C           G         F  C
Oh I love when a boy loves me


[Bridge]
C                 Am             F   C
Staying up in the morning on the telephone
C               Am              F     C
Someone to look forward to when I get home
  Am      G             Dm
I know it don’t make me all of me
        F
But I’m starting to see
        F
Oh, I’m starting to see


[Chorus]
      F        C               G            Am
Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
    F        C           G          Am
And I can be tough I can thicken my skin
      F           C            G       Am
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
      C           G   F     C
But I love when a boy loves me
      F        C               G            Am
Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
    F        C           G          Am
And I can be tough I can thicken my skin
      F           C            G       Am
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
      C           G         Am  F
But I love when a boy loves me
C           G         Am  F
Love when a boy loves me
      C           G         Am  F
Oh, I love when a boy loves me
C           G   F     C
Love when a boy loves me
