Rose Garden - Lynne Anderson
Intro:
[C] [C] [C] [C*]
|Chorus:
|I beg your [Dm] pardon, [G7] I never promised you a [C] rose garden
|Along with the [Dm] sunshine, [G7] There's gotta be a little [C] rain sometime
|When you [F] take you got to give so
|Live and let live or let [Dm] go...o...o
|I beg your [G7] pardon, I never promised you a [C] rose garden
Verse 1:
I could [C] promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growing on stalks of [Dm] clover
So you better think it [G7] over
Well if [C] sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver [Dm] platter
But what would it [G7] matter
Pre-Chorus:
So [Dm] smile for a while and [G7] let's be jolly
[C] Love shouldn't be so [A7] melancholy
[Dm] Come along and share the good times while we [F] ca...a...[D]an [STOP]
|Chorus:
|I beg your [Dm] pardon, [G7] I never promised you a [C] rose garden
|Along with the [Dm] sunshine, [G7] There's gotta be a little [C] rain sometimes
Instrumental:
[F] [A7] [Dm] [D7]
I beg your pardon [G7] I never promised you a [C] rose garden
Verse 2:
[C] I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you, I'd just as soon [Dm] let you go
But there's one thing I [G7] want you to know
[C] You better look before you leap, Still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to [Dm] pull you out
And you know what I'm [G7] talking about
Pre-Chorus:
So [Dm] smile for a while and [G7] let's be jolly
[C] Love shouldn't be so [A7] melancholy
[Dm] Come along and share the good times while we [F] ca...a...[D]an [STOP]
|Chorus x2:
|I beg your [Dm] pardon, [G7] I never promised you a [C] rose garden
|Along with the [Dm] sunshine, [G7] There's gotta be a little [C] rain sometimes
