C  G  Am  F

C                 G
It's not simple to say
       Am                       F
That most days I don't recognize me
C                    G
That these shoes and this apron
      Am                     F
That place and its patrons have taken more than I gave them
C                   G
It's not easy to know
        Am                   F
I'm not anything like I used to be
C                    G
Although it's true I was never attention's sweet center
      Am                   F
But I still remember that girl

C             G
She used to be mine
          Am                     F
She is messy but she's kind
           C               G
She is lonely most of the time
           Am               F
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
        C             G
She is gone but she used to be mine
