Tom: Em 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 PD-C HORUS: 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 PD-C HORUS: 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
