Fa
It's not simple to say
Do
That most days, I don't recognize me
Rem
That these shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
La#
Have taken more than I gave them
Fa
It's not easy to know
Do
I'm not anything that I used to be although
Rem
It's true, I was never attention's sweet center
La#
I still remember that girl
Fa
She's imperfect but she tries
Do
She is good but she lies
Rem
She is hard on herself
La#
She is broken and won't ask for help
Fa
She is messy but she's kind
Do
She is lonely most of the time
Rem
She is all of this mixed up and
La#
baked in a beautiful pie
Fa
She is gone but she used to be mine
Fa
And it's not what I asked for
Do
Sometimes life just slips in through a backdoor
Rem La#
and carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
And now I've got you
Fa
And you're not what I asked for
La7/Do#
If I'm honest I know I would give it all back
Rem
for a chance to start over
La#
And rewrite an ending or two
for the girl that I knew
Fa
Who'd be reckless just enough
Do
Who'd get hurt but who learns how to toughen up
Rem
When she's bruised and gets used
La#
By a man who can't love
And then she'll get stuck
Fa
And be scared of the life that's inside her
La7/Do#
Growing stronger each day
'Til it finally reminds her
Rem
To fight just a little
La#
To bring back the fire in her eyes
Fa La7/Do#
That's been gone but used to be mine
Rem La#
Used to be mine
Fa
She is messy but she's kind
Do
She is lonely most of the time
Rem
She is all of this mixed up
Rem/Do La#
and baked in a beautiful pie
Fa
She is gone but she used to be mine
