(Listen to midi)

Every rose has its thorn  (capo 4th)                       

 

    D - G - D - G

 

   D                                                   G

1.    We both lie silently still in the dead of the night,

                           D                                              G

    although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.

                D                             G

    Was it something I said or something I did?

                   D                           G

    Did my words not come out right?

                     A                                             G

    Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried,

 

    but I guess that's why they say:

 

  D                            G                  D                            G

Every rose has its thorn, just like every night has its dawn,

              D        A                         G            D

just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song,

                                G     - D - G - D - G

every rose has its thorn.

 

       D                                                              G

2. I listen to our favorite song playing on the radio,

                  D                                                        - G

    hear the DJ say, love's a game of easy come         and easy go.

               D                 G                         D                  G

    But I wonder does he know, has he ever feIt like this?

                 A

    And I know that you'd be here right now,

        - G

    if I       could have let you know somehow. I guess :

 

  D                            G                  D                            G

Every rose has its thorn, just like every night has its dawn,

              D        A                         G            D

just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song,

                                G    

every rose has its thorn.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bm                                 A                      G                         D

    Though it's been a while now, I can still feel so much pain,

Bm                            A

    like the knife that cuts you, the wound heals,

G                                          D      - G - D - G   

    but the scar, the scar remains.

 

     D - G - D - G

 

  D                                                                                  G

3.  I know I could have saved our love that night if I'd known what to say,

D                                                   - G

    instead of making love we both      made our separate ways.

                     - D                                    G

    And now I      hear you found somebody new

              D                                  G

    and that I never meant that much to you.

           A

    To hear that tears me up inside,

                 G

    and to see you cuts me like a knife. I guess :

 

  D                            G                  D                            G

Every rose has its thorn, just like every night has its dawn,

              D        A                         G            D

just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song,

                                G       - D

every rose has its thorn.
