Rose garden / I never promised you a

	  		 Am      D                      G  
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden  
  
               Am        D                         G  
along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime.  
  
         C                                                Am  
When you take you gotta give so live and let live and let go oh oh oh oh  
  
           D                                  G  
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden  
  
           G                        
1. I could promise you things like big diamond rings  
2. I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon   
  
                                                 Am           
1. but I don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover               
2. but if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go  
  
                           D  
1. so you better think it  over.  
2. but there's one thing I want you to know.  
  
             G                   
1. When it's sweet talking you could make it come true  
2. So look before you leap still waters run deep  
  
                                                    Am  
1. I would give you the world right now on a silver platter  
2. and there won't always be someone to             pull you out.  
  
                         D  
1. but what would it     matter.  
2. And you know what I'm talking about.  
  
  
   Am                     D                                   E  
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy  
  
Am                                            C     D  
Come along and share the good times while we can.
