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-nah nah nah
G             Am D
I beg your pardon
                                 G
I never promised you a rose garden

G
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
                                                                  Am
But you don't find roses growin' in fields of clover
                                      D
So you better think it over

G
Well if sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
                                                                       Am
then I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
                                     D                     
But what wouldn t really matter

Am                            D
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
D                                      E
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                                                     C  D
Come along and share the good times while we can

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-nah nah nah
G                Am D
I beg your pardon
                                         G
I never promised you a rose garden

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 to pull you out
                                        D
And you know what I'm talkin' about
D    Am                              D
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
D                                     E
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                                                    C    D
Come along and share the good times while we can

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-nah nah nah
G               Am D
I beg your pardon
                                      G
I never promised you a rose garden

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