[Intro]
D F G A G F D G D
[Chorus]
Em A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Em A D
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
G Em
When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go oh oh oh oh
A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
[Verse]
D
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
D Em
But you don't find roses growing on a stalks of clover
A
So you better think it over
D
Well it's sweetin' talkin' you could make it come true
D Em
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
A
But what would it matter
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A
So smile for a while and lets be jolly
C B
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Em G A
Come along and share the good times while we can..
[Chorus]
Em A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Em A D C B Em G
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
[Verse]
D
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
D Em
But if that's what it takes to hold, I'd just as soon let you go
A
But there's one thing I want you to know
D
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep
D Em
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
A
And ya know what I'm talking about
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A
So smile for a while and lets be jolly
C B
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Em G A
Come along and share the good times while we can..
[Chorus]
Em A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Em A D
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
Em A D
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Em A D Em A
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
