Capo 5
Intro
[C]
Verse 1
[C]
It's not simple to say
[G]
Most days I don't recognize me
[Am]
With these shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
[F]
Have taken more than I gave them
[C]
It's not easy to know
[G]
I'm not anything like I used to be
[Am]
Although it's true
I was never attention's sweet center
[F]
But I still remember that girl
Chorus
[C]
She's imperfect but she tries
[G]
She is good but she lies
[Am]
She is hard on herself
[F]
She is broken and won't ask for help
[C]
She is messy but she's kind
[G]
She is lonely, most of the time
[Am]
She is all of this, mixed up
[F]
And baked in a beautiful pie
[C]
She is gone, but she used to be mine
Verse 2
[C]
And it's not what I asked for
[G]
Sometimes life just slips in through a backdoor
[Am] [F]
And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
Now I've got you
[C]
And you're not what I asked for
[E]
If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back
[Am]
For a chance to start over
[F]
And rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew
Verse 3
[C]
Who'll be reckless, just enough
[G]
Who'll get hurt
[Am]
But who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised
[F]
And gets used by a man who can't love
[C]
And then she'll get stuck and be scared
Of the life that's inside her
[E]
Growing stronger each day
Till it finally reminds her
[Am]
To fight just a little
[F]
To bring back the fire in her eyes
[C] [E]
That's been gone, but used to be mine
[Am] [F]
Used to be mine
Outro
[C]
She is messy, but she's kind
[G]
She is lonely, most of the time
[Am] [F]
She is all of this, mixed up, and baked in a beautiful pie
[C]
She is gone, but she used to be mine
