Introduction:
A
I was only 13 when daddy died
D A
Mama started drinking and my brother just quit trying
E
I'm still bouncing back, heaven only knows
A
How I came out like a rose
A
Ran off with what's his name when I turned 18
D A
Got me out of SOuth Dakota, but it did not change a thing
E
I left it in the yard, all covered up with snow
A
And I came out like a rose
D
Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand
A
Waiting on a bus to some promise land
E
I got a one way ticket as far as it goes
A
And I came out like a rose
A
So I'm headed south to anywhere that ain't so damn cold
D A
Where I can warm my heart and shake the chills from my bones
E
It took a while to get here, it's been a long hard road
A
And I came out like a rose
