Rose Garden

D  G  C  G


[Chorus]

G          Am     D
I beg your pardon
                       G
I never promised you a rose garden
               Am       D
Along with the sunshine
                           G
There's gotta' be a little rain some time
         C
When you take you gotta' give so live and let live
       Am
Or let go oh-whoa-whoa-whoa
  Am7      D      D7
I beg your pardon
                       G           D
I never promised you a rose garden


[Verse 1]

        G
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
                                              Am
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
                       D    D7
So you better think it over
        G
Well if sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
                                                 Am
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
                  D
But what would it matter
   Am                    D
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
     Dm              E
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                           C   D
Come along and share the good times while we can


[Bridge]

           Am     D
I beg your pardon
        G
I never promised you a rose garden
               Am
Along with the sunshine
D                              G
Girl there's gotta be a little rain some time


[Interlude]

C  Am Am7 D  D7 G


[Verse 2]

G
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon

But if that's what it takes to hold you
                 Am
I'd just as soon let you go
                        D
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 girl to pull you out
                      D
And you know what I'm talkin' about
   Am                    D
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Dm                   E
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                           C  D
Come along and share the good times while we can..

           Am     D
I beg your pardon
         D7            G
I never promised you a rose garden
               Am       D
Along with the sunshine
                          G
There's gotta be a little rain some time
  C             G
A little bit of rain
