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

Chorus 1
She's im (F major) perfect, but she tries
She is (C major) good, but she lies
She is (D minor) hard on herself
She is (B flat major) broken and won't ask for help
She is (F major) messy, but she's kind
She is (C major) lonely most of the time
She is (D minor) all of this mixed up
and baked in a beautiful pie (B flat major)
She is gone, but she used to be (F major) mine
Verse 2
(F major) It's not what I asked for
Sometimes (C major) life just slips in
through a back door
And (D minor) carves out a person
and makes you believe it's all (B flat major) true
And now I've got you
(F major) And you're not what I asked for
If I'm honest, (A7) I know I would give it all back
For a chance (D minor) to start over
and rewrite an ending or two (B flat major)
For the girl that I knew
Chorus 2
Who'll be (F major) reckless, just enough
Who'll get (C major) hurt,
but who learns how to toughen up
When she's (D minor) bruised and gets used by a man
who can't (B flat major) love
And then she'll get stuck
And be (F major) scared of the life that's inside her
Growing (A7) stronger each day
'til it finally reminds her
To (D minor) fight just a little,
to bring back the fire (F/C) in her eyes (B flat major)
That's been gone, but used to be (F major) mine (A7)
Used to be (D minor) mine (B flat major)
Chorus 3
She is (F major) messy, but she's kind
She is (C major) lonely most of the time
She is (D minor) all of this mixed up
and baked in a (F/C) beautiful pie (B flat major)
She is gone, but she used to be (F major) mine
She Used To Be Mine
