"She Used To Be Mine" sung live by Sara Bareilles
Composed by Sara Bareilles for the musical adaptation of the film, "Waitress"
FIt's not simple to say
CMost days, I don't recognize me
These Dmshoes and this apron
This place and its patrons
Have Bbtaken more than I gave them
FIt's not easy to know
I'm nCot anything that I used to be oh
It's true,Dm I was never attention's sweet center
I Bbstill remember that girl
FShe's imperfect but she tries
She is Cgood but she lies
She isDm hard on herself
She iBbs broken but won't ask for help
She is Fmessy but she's kind
She is Clonely most of the time
She is Dmall of this mixed up and
baked in a beautiful Bbpie
She is gone but she used to be Fmine
FIt's not what I asked for
SometimesC life slips in through a blackdoor
and Dmcarves out a person and makes you believe it's allBb true
Now I've got you
FYou're not what I asked for
If I'm A7/C#honest I know I would give it all back
for a Dmchance to start over
Rewrite an ending or Bbtwo
for the girl that I knew
Who'd be Freckless just enough
Who'd get Churt but who learns how to tough it up
When she's Dmbruised, and gets used
By a man who can't Bblove
Then she'll get stuck
And be Fscared of the life that's inside her
Growing stA7/C#ronger each day
Til it finally reminds her
That Dmfight just a little
To bring back the fire in her Bbeyes
That's been gone but it used to be Fmine A7/C#
Used toDm mine C
FShe is messy but she's kind
She is Clonely most of the time
She is Dmall of this mixed up
and baked in a Cbeautiful pBbie
She is gone but she used to be Fmine
