Rose Garden
by Lynn Anderson  written by Joe South
 
G           Am
I beg your pardon
D7                     G
I never promised you a rose garden
               Am
Along with the sunshine
D7                        G
There's gotta be a little rain sometimes
 
         C
When you take you got to give so
                         Am
Live and let live or let go
           D7
I beg your pardon
                       G
I never promised you a rose garden
 
 
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
 
    Am                   D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
                     E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am                                           C
Come along and share the good times while we can

G
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
 
But if that's what it takes to hold you
                 Am
I'd 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
