Perfect song btw.

on and transpose
it down for more straight forward chords.
[Intro]
F#
F#It's not simple to say
C#That most days, I don't recognize me
That tD#mhese shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have Btaken more than I gave them
F#It's not easy to know
I'm nC#ot anything that I used to be although
It's trD#mue, I was never attention's sweet center
I Bstill remember that girl
SF#he's imperfect but she tries
She is goC#od but she lies
She is D#mhard on herself
She is Bbroken but won't ask for help
She is F#messy but she's kind
She is C#lonely most of the time
She is D#mall of this mixed up and
Baked in a beautiful Bpie
She is gone but she used to be F#mine
F#And it's not what I asked for
Sometimes C#life just slips in through a backdoor
And D#mcarves out a person and makes you believe it's all Btrue
And now I've got you
F#You're not what I asked for
If I'm A#7/Dhonest I know I would give it all back
for a D#mchance to start over
And rewrite an ending Bor two
For that girl that I knew
Who was F#reckless just enough
Who gets hC#urt but who learns how to toughen up
When she's D#mbruised, and gets used
By a man who can't Blove
And then she'll get stuck
And be F#scared of the life that's inside her
Getting stA#7/Dronger each day
Til it finally reminds her
To fiD#mght just a little
To bring back the fire in her Beyes
That's been gone but used to be F#mineA#7/D  
Oh it used to mD#mineB  
F#She is messy but she's kind
She is C#lonely most of the time
She is D#mall of this mixed up
And baked in a C#beautiful piBe
She is gone but she used to be F#mine
Ending
