Capo 5

[Chord Progression]
C G Am F (repeated throughout the song)

[Verse 1]

It's not simpl

e to say

Most days I do

n't recognize 

me

With these sho

es and this ap

ron

That place and

 its patrons

Have taken mor

e than I gave 

them

It's not easy 

to know

I'm not anythi

ng like I used

 to be

Although it's 

true

I was never at

tention's swee

t center

But I still re

member that gi

rl

[Chorus]

She's imperfec

t but she trie

s

She is good bu

t she lies

She is hard on

 herself

She is broken 

and won't ask 

for help

She is messy b

ut she's kind

She is lonely,

 most of the t

ime

She is all of 

this, mixed up
            
And baked in a

          
 beautiful pie
             
She is gone, b

              
ut she used to

   
 be mine

[Verse 2]

And it's not w

hat I asked fo

r

Sometimes life

 just slips in

 through a bac

kdoor
            
And carves out

              
 a person and 

              
makes you beli

             
eve it's all t

rue

Now I've got y

ou

And you're not

 what I asked 

for

If I'm honest,

 I know I woul

d give it all 

back

For a chance t

o start over
            
And rewrite an

            
 ending or two

For the girl t

hat I knew

[Verse 3]
         
Who'll be reck

less, just eno

ugh
           
Who'll get hur

t
             
But who learns

              
 how to toughe

              
n up when she'

  
s bruised
            
And gets used 

              
by a man who c

    
an't love
             
And then she'l

              
l get stuck an

    
d be scared

Of the life th

at's inside he

r

Growing strong

er each day

Till it finall

y reminds her

To fight just 

a little
            
To bring back 

              
the fire in he

   
r eyes
             
That's been go

              
ne, but used t

            
o be mine
           
Used to be min

  
e

[Outro]

She is messy, 

but she's kind

She is lonely,

 most of the t

ime
            
She is all of 

              
this, mixed up

              
, and baked in

            
 a beautiful p

ie
             
She is gone, b

              
ut she used to

   
 be mine
