Am                                           C        Am
There once was a time when I was a girl
                        G                     Am
That darkness hunged in my sky
                             C                    Am
I was old before I learned to be young
                             G                  Am
Just don't call till I learn how to cry

              C                                                  G
and the weeds in the ground have grow up through my skin
      C                                   E
it's taking a lonesome girl's heart
      Am                              C        Am
I will go where the stolen roses grow
                        G            Am
to forget that I have fell apart

                                      C                        Am
the thorns on the roses cut through my skin
                             G                       Am
the vultures flew down and then parted
                                                  C      Am
what lay on the surface was a tiny crack
                              G           E
and below was a gigantic wreck
       C                                       G
so I held my head down and I dealt with the blows
   C                                 E          Am                           C        Am
In hope that I'd soon be free to go where the stolen roses grow
                          G           Am
to forget I have bad memory

I will go where the stolen roses grow
