I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime.

When you take you gotta give so live and let live and let go oh oh oh oh

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

1. I could promise you things like big diamond rings
2. I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon 

                                                            A5
1. but I don't find roses growin' on stalks of              glover
2. but if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go

                           D5
1. so you better think it  over.
2. but there's one thing I want you to know.

             G5                 
1. When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
2. So look before you leap still waters run deep

                                                    A5
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.

                         D5
1. but what would it     matter.
2. And you know what I'm talking about.

So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy

A5                                            C5     D5
Come along and share the good times while we can.
