[Verse]
      Am                   Fmaj7   Am
There once was a time when I was a girl
     Am       G          Am
That darkness hung in my sky
      Am           Fmaj7         Am
I was old before I learned to be young
      Am          G              Am
Stone cold 'til I learned how to cry

[Chorus]
        C                            G
And the weeds in the ground had grew up through my skin
    C                        E
Foresaking a lonesome girl's heart
        Am                  Fmaj7 Am      
I would go where the stolen roses grow
      Am         E         Am
To forget that I had fell apart

[Verse]
    Am                  Fmaj7          Am
The thorns on the roses cut through my skin
    Am            G             Am
The vultures flew down and they pecked
     Am                       Fmaj7 Am
What lay on the surface was a tiny crack
    Am          G        E
And below was a gigantic wreck

[Chorus]
     C                       G
So I held my head down and I dealt with the blows
   C                     E
In hope that I'd soon be free to
Am                  Fmaj7 Am
Go where the stolen roses grow
      Am          E       Am
To forget all the bad memories
