This version saves the need to detune. Play with a capo
on the 2nd fret. The As chord is an Asus.

Capo 2
Intro:
E/ (022100@1)/ /   As / / /   E/ (022100@1)/ /   As / / /


E (022100@1)                             As
We both lie silent still in the dead of the night
            E (022100@1)                              As
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
       E (022100@1)                  As
Was it somethin' I said, or somethin' I did
       E (022100@1)                As
Did my words not come out right
         B (x2444x@1)                             AThough (x02220@1)I tried not to hurt you, though I tried,

but I guess that's why they say

E (022100@1)                 As
Every rose has it's thorn 
          E (022100@1)                  As
Just like every night has it's dawn
          E (022100@1)   B (x2444x@1)            A (x02220@1)      EJust (022100@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As
Every rose has it's thorn...yeah it does

E/ (022100@1)/ /   As / / /   E/ (022100@1)/ /   As / / /

  E (022100@1)                                      As
I listen to a favorite song playin' on the radio
         E (022100@1)                                   As
Yeah the DJ said love's a game of easy come and easy go
      E (022100@1)         As
But I wonder does he know
       E (022100@1)            As
Has it ever felt like this
      B (x2444x@1)                       
And I know that you'd be here right now if I
ACoulda (x02220@1)let you know somehow, I guess

E (022100@1)                 As
Every rose has it's thorn 
          E (022100@1)                  As
Just like every night has it's dawn
          E (022100@1)   B (x2444x@1)            A (x02220@1)      EJust (022100@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As
Every rose has it's thorn

C#m (x13321@4)              BThough (x2444x@1)it's been a while now,
      A (x02220@1)                EI (022100@1)can still feel so much pain
C#m (x13321@4)             BLike (x2444x@1)a knife that cuts you the wound heals
        ABut (x02220@1)the scar, that scar remains

E (022100@1)                                             As
I know I could've saved a love that night if I'd known what to say
E (022100@1)                           As
Instead of makin' love we both made our separate ways
          E (022100@1)                   As
And now I hear you've found somebody new
    E (022100@1)                     As
And that I never meant that much to you
   BTo (x2444x@1)hear that tears me up inside
       Aand (x02220@1)to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess

E (022100@1)                 As
Every rose has it's thorn 
          E (022100@1)                  As
Just like every night has it's dawn
          E (022100@1)   B (x2444x@1)            A (x02220@1)      EJust (022100@1)like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
                    As      EEvery (022100@1)rose has it's thorn
