Intro:
E / / /   As / / /   E / / /   As / / /


E                               As
We both lie silent still in the dead of the night
            E                                As
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
       E                    As
Was it somethin’ I said, or somethin’ I did
       E                  As
Did my words not come out right
         B                               A
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried,

but I guess that’s why they say

E                   As
Every rose has it’s thorn 
          E                    As
Just like every night has it’s dawn
          E     B              A        E
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As
Every rose has it’s thorn...yeah it does

E / / /   As / / /   E / / /   As / / /

  E                                        As
I listen to a favorite song playin’ on the radio
         E                                     As
Yeah the DJ said love’s a game of easy come and easy go
      E           As
But I wonder does he know
       E              As
Has it ever felt like this
      B                         
And I know that you’d be here right now if I
A
Coulda let you know somehow, I guess

E                   As
Every rose has it’s thorn 
          E                    As
Just like every night has it’s dawn
          E     B              A        E
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As
Every rose has it’s thorn

C#m                B
Though it’s been a while now,
      A                  E
I can still feel so much pain
C#m               B
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
        A
But the scar, that scar remains


SOLO
E / / /    As / / /   E / / /    As / / /
C#m / B /  A / E /    C#m / B /  A / / /

E / / /   As / / /   E / / /   As / / /

E                                               As
I know I could’ve saved a love that night if I’d known what to say
E                             As
Instead of makin’ love we both made our separate ways
          E                     As
And now I hear you’ve found somebody new
    E                       As
And that I never meant that much to you
   B
To hear that tears me up inside
       A
and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess

E                   As
Every rose has it’s thorn 
          E                    As
Just like every night has it’s dawn
          E     B              A        E
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As      E
Every rose has it’s thorn
