    A#                              D#
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night.
             A#
Although we both lie close together,
         D#
We feel miles apart inside.
        A#                   D#
Was it something I said, or something I did,
        A#                D#
did my words not come  out right?
           F                               D#
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried,
but I guess that's why they say

Chorus:
A#                   D#
Every rose has its thorn.
           A#                  D#
Just like every night has its dawn.
           A#    F                D#       A#
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song.
 A#                   D#
Every rose has its thorn.

Hear the DJ say love's a game of
easy come and easy go
But I wonder, does he know?
Has he ever felt like this?
And I know that you'd be here right now
If I, I could let you know somehow

Chorus:
Every rose has its thorn
(Every rose, every rose, every rose)
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
(Every rose, every rose, every rose, yeah)
Every rose has its thorn

  Gm                 F
Though it's been a while now,
       D#                 A#
I can still feel so much pain.
Gm                 F                     D#
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals,
                           A#
but the scar, that scar remains.

Every rose, every rose
Every rose has its thorn

I know I could've saved a love that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' love,
we both made our separate ways
And now I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you
And to hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife

Chorus:
Every rose has its thorn
(Every rose, every rose, every rose)
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
(Every rose, every rose, every rose, yeah)
Every rose has its thorn (Yeah, it does)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
