Rose Garden by Lynn Anderson
Rose Garden
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 5th fret
[Chorus]
G Am D7 G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
Am D7 G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes
C Am
When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go
Am D7 G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
[Verse]
G
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
Am
but you don't find roses growing on stalks of clover
D7
So you better think it over
G
When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
Am
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
D7
But what would it matter
[Bridge]
Am D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Dm E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am Cm D7
Come along and share the good times while we can
[Chorus]
Am D7 G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
Am D7 G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes
Am D7 G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
[Verse]
G
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
Am
Id just as soon let you go
D7
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
D7
And you know what I'm talking about
[Bridge]
Am D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Dm E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am Cm D7
Come along and share the good times while we can
[Chorus]
Am D7 G
I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden
Am D7 G
Along with the sunshine theres gotta be a little rain sometimes
G Am
I beg your pardon
