I have decorative rocks placed on one side of my deck and grass keeps growing there. Originally I placed a garden weed barrier there, but grass still comes up.

You could spray around and on top of the rocks with weed killer, You don't say what you mean by decorative so my guess is that they are painted? You could also pour table salt around(on the ground) the rocks and into the grass.
spray a weed killer prior to putting your barrier down.
Use vinegar or hot water, this should kill the grass.
I never considers spraying weed killer before playing the weed barrier down. Wish I would have know. That a few days ago, when I laid weed barrier down.
if there are no plants involved make a solution of white vinegar and water 50/50 a dab of dish soap and a dab of salt
I would avoid using chemical weed killers, that soaks into the ground and eventually ends up in the drinking water. Go the vinegar, salt, dish soap route-it is a safe effective way to kill weeds.
