It's not simple to say
[Cm] Most things I don't recognize me [D] Jesus
It takes its teachings
[Bb] I'm making more
[Eb]
[F] It's not easy to know
[C] I'm not [D] like [C] I used to be
Although it's [D] true
I was never
Attention, sweet [Bb] center
I still remember that girl
[F] She's imperfect, [Bb] she tries
[C] She is good, but she lies
[D] She is hard on herself
[A] She [Bb] is broken and poor
[F] She is messy, but she's fine
She [C] is lonely most of the time
She is [Dm] old and she's sick
And baked in a [A] [Bb] beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used [F] to be mine
It's not what I asked for
[A] [C] Sometimes life just slips in through a [Db] back door
[D] And carves out a person
And [Am] makes you believe [Bb] it's so true
I ain't got you
[F] And you're not what I asked for
[A] If I'm lost I know
I would give it all back
For [Dm] the chance to start over
[Em] And rewrite it [F] all too
For the girl that I knew
Who'd be reckless
Just enough to [C] get hurt
But who learns how to toughen up [Dm] when she's bruised
And gets used by a man who [F] can't love
And then she'll get stuck
And be scared of the life that's inside her
[A] Of a stronger each [D] day
Till it finally reminds her
[Dm] To fight just a little
To bring back [Bb] her eyes
That's been gone, but [F] used to be mine
[A]
Used [Dm] to be [A]
[Bb] mine
She [Fm] is messy, but she's fine
[C] She is lonely most of the time
