Every Rose Has Its Thorn Lyrics with Chords
[Verse 1]
[G]We both lie silently still in the [Cadd9]dead of the night
Although we [G]both lie close together,
We feel [Cadd9]miles apart inside
Was it [G]something I said or [Cadd9]something I did?
Did my [G]words not come out [Cadd9]right?
Though I [D]tried not to hurt you
Though I [Cadd9]tried
But I guess that’s why they say:
[Chorus]
[G]Every rose has its [Cadd9]thorn, Just like
[G]Every night has its [Cadd9]dawn, Just like
[G]Every [D]cowboy sings a [Cadd9]same, sad [G]song
[G]Every rose has its [C]thorn
Yeah it does
[Instrumental]
[G] [Cadd9] [G] [Cadd9]
[Verse 2]
I [G]listen to our favorite song playing on the [Cadd9]radio
Hear the [G]DJ say, “love’s a game of [Cadd9]easy come and easy go“
But I [G]wonder, does he [Cadd9]know?
Has he [G]ever felt like [Cadd9]this?
And I [D]know that you’d be here right now
If I could have [Cadd9]let you know somehow, I guess
[Chorus]
[G]Every rose has its [Cadd9]thorn, Just like
[G]Every night has its [Cadd9]dawn, Just like
[G]Every [D]cowboy sings a [Cadd9]same, sad [G]song
[G]Every rose has its [C]thorn
Yeah it does
[Bridge]
[Em]Though, it’s been a [D]while now
I can [Cadd9]still feel so much [G]pain
[Em]Like a knife that [D]cuts you the wound heals
[Cadd9]But the scar, that scar rem[G]ains
[Solo]
[G Cadd9 G Cadd9]
[Em D C G]
[Em D C C]
[G Cadd9 G Cadd9]
[Verse 3]
I [G]know I could have saved a love [Cadd9]that night If I’d known what to say
[G]Instead of making love, we both [Cadd9]made our separate ways
And [G]now, I hear you found [Cadd9]somebody new,
And [G]that I never meant that [Cadd9]much to you
To [D]hear that tears me up inside
And to [Cadd9]see you cuts me like a knife, I guess
[Chorus]
[G]Every rose has its [Cadd9]thorn, Just like
[G]Every night has its [Cadd9]dawn, Just like
[G]Every [D]cowboy sings a [Cadd9]same, sad [G]song
[G]Every rose has its [C]thorn
Yeah it does
Yeah it does
