F It's not simple to say C Most days I don't recognize me Dm These shoes and this apron This place and its patrons Bb Have taken more than I gave them F It's not easy to know C I'm not anything that I used to be oh Dm It's true I was never attention's sweet center Bb I still remember that girl F She's imperfect but she tries C She is good but she lies Dm She is hard on herself Bb She is broken but won't ask for help F She is messy but she's kind C She is lonely most of the time Dm She is all of this mixed up and Bb baked in a beautiful pie F She is gone but she used to be mine F It's not what I asked for C Sometimes life slips in through a backdoor Dm Bb and carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true Now I've got you F You're not what I asked for A7 If I'm honest I know I would give it all back Dm for a chance to start over Bb Rewrite an ending or two for the girl that I knew F Who'd be reckless just enough C Who'd get hurt but who learns how to tough it up Dm When she's bruised and gets used Bb By a man who can't love Then she'll get stuck F And be scared of the life that's inside her A7 Growing stronger each day Til it finally reminds her Dm That fight just a little Bb To bring back the fire in her eyes F A7 That's been gone but it used to be mine Dm C Used to mine F She is messy but she's kind C She is lonely most of the time Dm She is all of this mixed up C Bb and baked in a beautiful pie F She is gone but she used to be mine This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

5 ukulele chords used in "She Used To Be Mine" by Sara Bareilles: A7, Bb, C, Dm and F
I used this song for an audition a few months ago, so my mom was helping me record it and she’s never heard this song before. When I finished I looked at her and she was just sitting there crying. And now every time I listen to this song it reminds me of that.
-5 for anyone singing in the key Jeremy Jordan sang this in
+1 is A LOT harder, trust me, but it sounds like the original track! It’s sounds sooo much better!
my mom’s birthday is coming up and i want to make a sweet little parody of this song but i am not creative whatsoever so idk
beautiful song, such an inspiring and amazing story even though i didn’t watch the musical. i can just hear how emotional the song, even when i sing it myself with the ukulele chords i can feel how special this song is.
Ps thanks for the ukulele chords! it will definitely help me with my music classes!

-5 Is easiest, I suggest capo on fret 5. Sounds real pretty 🙂
I don’t really know the strumming pattern for this. What have people been using?
-3 is good for altos and it’s fairly easy as well! and i use d udu d udu for strumming and i think it sounds pretty good 🙂
-5 works best for me
whats the strumming pattern?
+2 sounds very nice imo
1+ sound like the original one
The original key is pretty good for people who have a little uke experience, and +1 sounds like the actual track but it’s much harder.
