GCadd9
 
 We bGoth lie silently still, in the Cadd9dead of the night.
  Although we bGoth lie close together, we feel mCadd9iles apart inside.
  Was it soGmething I said, or sCadd9omething I did,
 did my woGrds not come out Cadd9right?
 Though I tDried not to hurt you, though I Ctried, but I guess that's why they say
 
GEvery rose has its tCadd9horn.
 Just like eGvery night has its Cadd9dawn.
 Just like eGvery coDwboy sings a sCad, sad song.
 EGvery rose has its thCorn.
 
 I just play G-Cadd9-G-Cadd9 
 
GListen to our favorite song, playing on the rCadd9adio.
 Well the GDJ says loves a game of easy come and Cadd9easy go.
 But I wGonder, does he Cadd9know, has he eGver felt like tCadd9his.
 Well I kDnow that you'd be here right now if I C 
coulda let you know somehow, I guess
 
 ThEmough it's been awhiDle now, I can stCill feel so much pGain.
 LEmike a knife that cuDts you the wound healsC, but the scar, that scar remaiGns
GCadd9
 
 I kGnow I coulda saved our love that night if I'd Cadd9known what to say.
  GInstead of making love we both Cadd9made our separate ways.
  And now I heGar you've found someCadd9body new, and tGhat I never meant that mCadd9uch to you.
  To hDear that tears me up inside, and to Csee you cuts me like a knife, I guess
