Previous version helped me out a lot!  Just a few minor changes that will enhance 
the accuracy of this amazing song!  Thanks Matt!

The chord that I'm calling Dmaj7 and Am7 is as follows...Also, no need to fully 
barre the F, leave the bottom 2 strings open.

Em 
Look what he's done to you,

It isn't fair.
Dmaj7
Your light was bright and new.

But he didnt care.
Am                                                          Em
He took the heart of a little girl, and made it grow up to fast.

Em
Now words like innocence,

Dont mean a thing.
Dmaj7
You hear the music play,

But you can't sing
Am                                                         Em D
Those picures in your mind, keep you locked up inside your past.

Chorus:
Em
This is a song for the broken girl,
C
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world.
G         F
You are, hear me when I say!
Em
Your not the worthless they made you feel,
C                                     G  
There is a love they can never steal away 
F                                 Em
You don't have to stay the broken girl!

Verse 2:
Em
Those damaged goods you see,

In your reflection.
Dmaj7
Love sees them differently,

Love sees perfection.
Am                                           Em          D
A beautiful display, of healing on the way tonight. Tonight!

Chorus:
Em
This is a song for the broken girl,
C
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world.
G         F
You are, hear me when I say!
Em
Your not the worthless they made you feel,
C                                     G
There is a love they can never steal away
F
You don't have to stay the broken,

C     G  D   Am 
Girl! Girl! You dont have to stay the broken,
C     G  D   
Girl! Girl! 

Bridge:

         C                G
Let your tears, touch the ground.
             D
Lay all your shattered pieces down.
       C              G
And be amazed, by how grace,
           D                            C
Can take a broken girl and put her back together again.
