[Verse 1]
F
It's not simple to say
C
Most days, I don't recognize me
Dm
These shoes and this apron
This place and its patrons
A#
Have taken more than I gave them
F
It's not easy to know
C
I'm not anything that I used to be although
Dm
It's true, I was never attention's sweet center
A#
I still remember that girl
[Verse 2]
F
She's imperfect but she tries
C
She is good but she lies
Dm
She is hard on herself
A#
She is broken but won't ask for help
F
She is messy but she's kind
C
She is lonely most of the time
Dm
She is all of this mixed up and
A#
baked in a beautiful pie
F
She is gone but she used to be mine
[Verse 3]
F
It's not what I asked for
C
Sometimes life slips in through a blackdoor
Dm A#
and carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
Now I've got you
F
You're not what I asked for
A
If I'm honest I know I would give it all back
Dm
for a chance to start over
A#
Rewrite an ending or two
for the girl that I knew
[Verse 4]
F
Who'd be reckless just enough
C
Who'd get hurt but who learns how to tough it up
Dm
When she's bruised, and gets used
A#
By a man who can't love
Then she'll get stuck
F
And be scared of the life that's inside her
A
Growing stronger each day
Til it finally reminds her
Dm
That fight just a little
A#
To bring back the fire in her eyes
F A
That's been gone but it used to be mine
Dm C
Used to mine
[Bridge]
F
She is messy but she's kind
C
She is lonely most of the time
Dm
She is all of this mixed up
C A#
and baked in a beautiful pie

She is gone but she used to be mine
