Rose Garden

G            Am    D7                       G
  I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
               Am      D7                        G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes
         C                                               Am
When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go
           Am    D7                       G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden

[Verse]
        G
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
                                               Am
but you don't find roses growing on stalks of clover
                        D7
So you better think it over
          G
When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
                                                 Am
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
                  D7
But what would it matter

[Bridge]
   Am                     D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
 Dm                  E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                            Cm    D7
Come along and share the good times while we can

[Chorus]
           Am     D7                      G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
               Am      D7                        G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes

           Am    D7                       G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden

[Verse]
        G
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon

But if that's what it takes to hold you
                Am
Id just as soon let you go
                        D7
But there's one thing I want you to know
            G
You better look before you leap still waters run deep
                                           Am
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
                       D7
And you know what I'm talking about

[Bridge]
    Am                   D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Dm                   E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                            Cm    D7
Come along and share the good times while we can

[Chorus]
           Am     D7                      G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
               Am      D7                        G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes
G            Am
  I beg your pardon
