This is my first time uploading on here, so I apologize in advance 
if these are wrong, I would gladly accept any corrections! I am a 
15 year old girl and I have a really big passion for guitar so I 
would accept any criticism :)

I found a lot of the posts on here for this song weren't correct 
and after countless times listening to the song, and seeing other
peoples versions of the way they perform this song, this is what 
I came up with. Please feel free to correct me.

The strumming pattern is kind of difficult because it's so 
complex, but I'll try my best to explain it.

    For the first two verses it's a sixteenth note strum.
    1st set of G Cadd9 - G Cadd9:
        D-DDU-UD-DUDU
    2nd set of G Cadd9 - G Cadd9:
           D-DDU
             DC:
        D-DDU-UD-DUDU

    Chorus strumming pattern.
    G Cadd9 - G Cadd9:
        D-DDU-UD-DUDU
    GDC:
        D-DDU
    G:
        D-DDU-UD-DUDU
    C:
        Down

    The little extra verse thing that I indicated I didn't know what exactly was.
    I just used D-DU-U-DU

    For the 3rd and final verse.
    G (320003@1)// C (x32010@1)x4
        DU    D (xx0232@1)   G Cadd9 - G Cadd9:
        D-DDU
    DC:
        D-DDU-UD-DUDU

Sorry if that was bad, if you still don't understand I used the video 
at the following link to help me understand.

Verse 1:
    G (320003@1)                            Cadd9We (x32030@1)both lie silently still, in the dead of the night
             G (320003@1)                             Cadd9Although (x32030@1)we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
         G (320003@1)                Cadd9Was (x32030@1)it something I said, or something I did,
         G (320003@1)              Cadd9did (x32030@1)my words not come out right?
          D (xx0232@1)                             GThough (320003@1)I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say


Chorus:
  G (320003@1)              Cadd9Every (x32030@1)rose has its thorn
           G (320003@1)                 Cadd9Just (x32030@1)like every night, has its dawn
           G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)           CJust (x32010@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
  G (320003@1)                CEvery (x32010@1)rose has its thorn

Verse 2:
  G (320003@1)                                      Cadd9Listen (x32030@1)to our favorite song playing on the radio
         G (320003@1)                                  Cadd9Well (x32030@1)the DJ says loves a game of east come and    easy go
       G (320003@1)            Cadd9 (x32030@1)       G (320003@1)           Cadd9But (x32030@1)I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this
        D (xx0232@1)                                    CWell (x32010@1)I know that you'd be here right now if I

could let you know somehow, I guess


Chorus:
  G (320003@1)              Cadd9Every (x32030@1)rose has its thorn
            G (320003@1)               Cadd9Just (x32030@1)like every night has its dawn
            G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)           CJust (x32010@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
  G (320003@1)                CEvery (x32010@1)rose has its thorn


(Not completely sure what this is)
  EM                D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)               GThough (320003@1)its been awhile now, I can still feel so much pain
 EM                 D (xx0232@1)                     C (x32010@1)                 GLike (320003@1)a knife that cuts you the wound heals,   but that scar remains


G-Cadd9 (x2)


Verse 3:
   G (320003@1)                                          Cadd9I (x32030@1)know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd   known what to say
G (320003@1)                             Cadd9 (x32030@1) instead of making love we both made our separate ways
            G (320003@1)                 Cadd9 (x32030@1)        G (320003@1)                     Cadd9and (x32030@1)now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you
    D (xx0232@1)                                Cto (x32010@1)hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess

Chorus:
 G (320003@1)               Cadd9Every (x32030@1)rose has its thorn
            G (320003@1)               Cadd9Just (x32030@1)like every night has its dawn
            G (320003@1)  D (xx0232@1)            CJust (x32010@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
