Bm D                   A
   Just before it rains the wind whips 'round the balcony
Bm D                  A
   And the sky closes on the english roses
Bm D               A
   And she'll be pacin' Round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Bm        D            A
Her Room, these storms always find here to remind her

( Bm  D  A )

Bm D              A
   To the endless sky The pink over
Bm    D                   A
Grey… She looks for an answer but it's too late
Bm    D            A
      Maybe it's true: some things were just never meant
Bm   D A
To be… Maybe not

     This is a story, fruit cut from the vine
C#m D                        A
     Forgot and left to rot, long before its time
C#m D                A
     This is a story about the girl who lived next door
E   D
     Looking for someone to hold

( Bm  D  A  A ) 2x

Bm D                    A
    A wish made on a star brought her here tonight
Bm D                    A
    At a courtyard she waits a thousand broken dates
Bm D                        A
    But she holds the hymnal where so carefully pressed
Bm D               A
    Is the english rose she laid to rest

C#m D      A
     Ahhh… It's only a story
C#m D                       A
     Flowers in full bloom, bouquets in every room
C#m D                     A
    Ooh, this is a story, fruit cut from the vine
E   D
    Looking for someone to hold
