Intro: G Cadd9
G Cadd9
We both lie silently still in the dead of the night. Although we
G Cadd9
both lie close together we feel miles apart inside. Was it
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
something I said or something I did? Did my words not come out right? Though I
D C
tried not to hurt you, though I tried. But I guess that's why they say
G Cadd9
ev'ry rose has its thorn, just like
G Cadd9
ev'ry night has its dawn. Just like
G D C G
ev'ry cowboy sings his sad, sad song
C
ev'ry rose has its thorn
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
G Cadd9
Listen to our favourite song playing on the radio hear the
G Cadd9
D.J. say love's a game of easy come and easy go. But I
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
wonder does he know, has he ever felt like this? And I
D C
know that you'd be right now if I could've let you know somehow. I guess
G Cadd9
ev'ry rose has its thorn, just like
G Cadd9
ev'ry night has its dawn. Just like
G D C G
ev'ry cowboy sings his sad, sad song
C
ev'ry rose has its thorn
Em D C G
Though it's been a while now I can still feel so much pain.
Em D C
Like the knife thats cuts you, the wound heals, but the scar,
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
that scar remains
G Cadd9
I know I could have saved our love that night if I'd known what to say
G Cadd9
Instead of making love we both made our separate ways. Now I
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
hear you've found somebody new and that I never meant that much to you. To
D C
hear that tears me up inside and to see you cuts me like a knife. I guess
G Cadd9
ev'ry rose has its thorn, just like
G Cadd9
ev'ry night has its dawn. Just like
G D C G
ev'ry cowboy sings his sad, sad song
C D G
ev'ry rose has its thorn

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official POISON tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
