Verse 1
[F]It's not simple to say
That most [C]days, I don't recognize me
That these [Dm]shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have [Bb]taken more than I gave them
[F]It's not easy to know
I'm not [C]anything that I used to be although
It's true,[Dm] I was never attention's sweet center
I [Bb]still remember that girl
Chorus 1
[F]She's imperfect but she tries
She is [C]good but she lies
She is[Dm] hard on herself
She is[Bb] broken and won't ask for help
She is [F]messy but she's kind
She is [C]lonely most of the time
She is [Dm]all of this mixed up and
baked in a beautiful [Bb]pie
She is gone but she used to be [F]mine
Verse 2
[F]And it's not what I asked for
Sometimes[C] life just slips in through a backdoor
and [Dm]carves out a person
and makes you believe it's all[Bb] true
And now I've got you
[F]And you're not what I asked for
If I'm [A7/C#]honest I know I would give it all back
for a [Dm]chance to start over
And rewrite an ending[Bb] or two
for the girl that I knew
Chorus 2
Who'd be [F]reckless just enough
Who'd get [C]hurt but who learns how to toughen up
When she's [Dm]bruised and gets used
By a man who can't [Bb]love
And then she'll get stuck
And be [F]scared of the life that's inside her
[A7/C#]Growing stronger each day
'Til it finally reminds her
To [Dm]fight just a little
To bring back the fire in her [Bb]eyes
That's been gone but used to be [F]mine [A7/C#]
Used to be [Dm]mine [Bb]
Ending
She [F]is messy but she's kind
She is [C]lonely most of the time
She is [Dm]all of this mixed up
and baked in a [Dm/C]beautiful [Bb]pie
She is gone but she used to be [F]mine
