Chords

This is my first time attempting this, and I've been practicing the guitar for less than a year and I didn't have music lessons at school so there are probably a few mistakes or it might be completely wrong but I tried and that's what matters, because I'll get better at it eventually (right? xB7) so if it's completely wrong or there are a few mistakes I'd appreciate it if you told me what was wrong with it so I can improve, or you could make your own version, because honestly I just want to learn the song and I cant find the chords for it so here xD I hope it's ok! [Intro:] E C G B7 X2 [Verses]
E          C                    G 
Miss Maggie was way too young to understand,

            B7                         E
why she got thrown into someone else's hands,

             C              G            B7
why she woke up to strange men, 

E                C
they tore her to pieces 

                       G
and she couldn't comprehend,

            B7
why she was locked up in a basement,

             E
filled with men.

                   C
Should've gone to school, 

                G               B7
instead she did them.

E
Don't touch me, 

C
I'm fragile,

G                 B7
I'm bitter in my heart.

E
Mama sold me,

for candy,

G                         B7
and I was ruined from the start.

E                                   C
Why'd you have to sell me to those mean old men? 

   G
They cut me up in places

        B7
I don't even understand.

     E
It's normalcy to me but,

All grown up and her body has decayed,

              B7                          E         C
all those promiscuous games she had to play,

                G                   B7
she skipped the jungle, jungle-gym phase.

E               C                           G
She's tryin' to look at things in a bright way,

                 B7                               E 
sees the light peekin' through the end of the hallway,

 C               G                     B7
No, She's tryin' tryin' tryin' to escape

E
I'm runnin' 

C
full force dear

G                             B7
but it's hard when you're bones.

E              C
I'm weak kneed but I'm flyin'

G                  B7
out of this hell hole. 

E                                   C
