This is pieced together from existing chords/tabs of Girls by the 1975 and Boys by Charli xcx that I could
find. It's the best my ears could pick out from Orla's video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TG9vYv_vJjI&t=40s

Suggestions are very much welcome as I am barely an intermediate myself.

Using the barr chords for most of these sound better:

e|----2----|----3----|----5----|----2----|----2----|----0----|
B|----3----|----3----|----7----|----4----|----2----|----0----|
G|----4----|----4----|----7----|----4----|----3----|----1----|
D|----4----|----5----|----7----|----4----|----4----|----2----|

E|----x----|----3----|----x----|----x----|----2----|----0----|

Bm G D x2

Bm G D
I was busy thinkin' 'bout boys, boys,
Bm G D
boys
Bm G D
Head is spinnin' thinkin' 'bout boys, boys,
Bm G D
boys-

Bm G D
I need that bad boy to do me right on a Friday
Bm G D
And I need that good one to wake me up on a Sunday
Bm G D
That one from work can come over on Monday night

Bm G
I want 'em all,
D
I want 'em all

Bm G D
And when they finally leave me, I'm all alone but
Bm G D
I'm lookin' down and my girls are blowin' my phone up
Bm G D
Those twenty questions, they askin' me where I'm at
Bm G D
Didn't hit 'em back

Bm G D
I'm sorry that I missed your party
Bm G D
I wish I had a better excuse like
Bm G D
I had to trash the hotel lobby

Bm G D

B
Cause I was busy dreamin' bout girls
F# E
breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
Oh she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F#
They're just girls,
E B F#
They're just girls, girls, girls
E B F# E
They're just girls, girls, girls

[Intro to Girls]
B E
Bite your face to spite your nose
B E
oh 17 and a half years old
B E
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
B E
But what's the fun in doing what you're told?

B
I said "No!
F# E
Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
B F#
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
E
Give me a night I'll make you.
B F#
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
E
But I'm not your saviour"
B F#
Wrestle to the ground
E
God help me now

B F# E
'Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
Oh she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F#
They're just girls,
E B F#
They're just girls, girls, girls
E B F# E
They're just girls, girls, girls

B F# E
They're just girls,

B F#

E B F#
They're just girls, girls, girls

[Outro]
B F# E
But I was busy thinkin' 'bout
B F# E
I was busy dreamin' 'bout
B F# E
I was busy thinkin' 'bout

My head was spinning thinikin' 'bout
B F# E
girls and boys
B F#
girls
E
I was busy thinkin' 'bout
B
everyone.
