[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]It's not simple to say
Most [G]days I don't recognize me
That these [Am]shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have [F]taken more than I gave them
[C]It's not easy to know
I'm not [G]anything like I used to be,
although it's [Am]true
I was never attention's sweet center
[F]I still remember that girl

[Chorus 1]
She's im[C]perfect, but she tries
She is [G]good, but she lies
She is [Am]hard on herself
She is [F]broken and won't ask for help
She is [C]messy, but she's kind
She is [G]lonely most of the time
She is [Am]all of this mixed up
and baked in a beautiful [F]pie
She is gone, but she used to be [C]mine

[Verse 2]
[C]It's not what I asked for
Sometimes [G]life just slips in
through a back door
And [Am]carves out a person
and makes you believe it's all [F]true
And now I've got you
[C]And you're not what I asked for
If I'm [E]honest, I know I would give it all back
For a [Am]chance to start over
and rewrite an ending or [F]two
For the girl that I knew

[Chorus 2]
Who'll be [C]reckless, just enough
Who'll get [G]hurt,
but who learns how to toughen up
When she's [Am]bruised and gets used by a man
who [F]can't love
And then she'll get stuck
And be [C]scared of the life that's inside her
Growing [E]stronger each day
'til it finally reminds her
To [Am]fight just a little,
to bring back the fire in her [F]eyes
That's been gone, but used to be [C]mine[E]
Used to be [Am]mine[F]

[Chorus 3]
She is [C]messy, but she's kind
She is [G]lonely most of the time
She is [Am]all of this mixed up
and baked in a beautiful [F]pie
She is gone, but she used to be [C]mine
