Tab done for Gavin Creel's excellent performance of this song on youtube (which I prefer cos as a guy it's a
lot easier to sing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPMF8fgLZbM
I prefer to play this song with mostly the lower notes, muting the higher pitched strings but you try it out
and see which you prefer then let me know. Also just let me know if this could be improved any way, I'd love
to get better at this.
For how to play the original song's key, please see the bottom of the page
Intro part - he plays a couple bars of scene setting that are difficult to transpose, but here's my best go
1 a 2 a 3 a 4 a 1 a 2 a 3 a 4 a 1 a 2 a 3 a 4 a

C
It's not simple to say, but
G
Most days I don't recognize me
Am
That these shoes and this apron, that place and its patrons
F
Have taken more than I gave them
C
It's not easy to know
G
I'm not anything like I used to be
Am
Although it's true I was never attention's sweet center
F
I still remember that girl
C
She's imperfect but she tries
G
She is good but she lies
Am
She is hard on herself
F
She is broken and won't ask for help
C
She is messy but she's kind
G Gaddb9
She is lonely most of the time
Am
She is all of this mixed up
Am7/G F
And baked in a beautiful pie
(C or Intro again, depending on preference)
She is gone but she used to be
C
It's not what I asked for
G
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
Am
And carves out a person
F
And makes you believe it's all true, and now I've got you
C
And you're not what I asked for
E
If I'm honest I know I would give it all back
Am
For a chance to start over
Am7/G F
And rewrite an ending or two, for that girl that I knew
C
Who was reckless just enough
G Gaddb9 Am
Who gets hurt, but who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised
Am7/G F
And gets used by a man who can't love, and then she'll get stuck
C
And be scared of the life that's inside her
E
Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her
Am
To fight just a little
F
And bring back the fire in her eyes
C (see below)
That's been gone but used to be mine, used to be mine
(he gets into it at this part, and again hard to transpose, but this is how I play it,
each chord strummed a little)

Less effort put into this one cos it's not the one I play, sorry but hey ho

soundtrack
