lyrics

You (Am) taught me to (C) love yet (Am) still I de- (G) spise.
I (D) wish I could (Am) see the world (C) through your loving (Am) eyes.
I see (C) conflict and (Em) despair you see (G) good in every- (C) one
I (Am) ask you why you (B7) still have faith (C) after all we’ve (Em) done

refrain:
Every (Am) thorn has a (C) rose and (D) every sinner (Am) knows
(D) somewhere there's a (Am) river in (C) which redemption (G) flows.
And the (Em) saying you know (C) well, is (G) backwards I pro- (B7) pose
Not (Em) every rose (C) has a thorn the (D) thorn has a (G) rose
Not (Em) every rose (C) has a thorn the (D) thorn has a (G) rose

Bridge: (Am) every (Em) thorn has a (C) rose
Every (D) thorn has a (Em) rose
Every (Am) thorn has a (G) rose
Every (B7) thorn has a (Em) rose

Once (Am) Jesus stood be- (C) fore me crown of (Am) thorns upon his (G) head
I (D) watched the savior (Am) bleed, his (C) face all streaked with (Am) red.
Said your (C) father is Al- (Em) mighty, can't he (G) lay those thorns to (C) waste?
For a (Am) moment I saw di- (B7) vinity when he (C) looked me in the (Em) face

(refrain + bridge)

(Am) Once I found a (C) rose with- (Am) out a single (G) thorn
The (D) leaves were all (Am) tattered and the (C) petals were all (Am) torn
Yet, That (C) rose possessed a (Em) beauty that was (G) way beyond com- (C) pare
And (Am) you my love are (B7) like that rose, (C) thornless and (Em) rare

Refrain
Out:
Not (Em) every rose (C) has a thorn every (D) thorn has a (G) rose
