Rose Garden Chords by Lynn Anderson

[Eb] _ [F] _ [F] _ [C] _ [F] _ [C] I [Dm] beg your pardon, [G] I never [C] promised you a rose garden
Along [Dm] with your sunshine
[G] There's gotta [C] be a little rain sometime
[F] When you take you gotta give
So live and let [Dm] live or let go
[F] I [G] beg your pardon, I never [C] promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growing on [Dm] slops and groves
So you [G] better think it over
_ [C] When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a [Dm] silver platter
But what [G] would it matter?
_ [Dm] So smile for a [G] while and let's be [Gm] jolly
Laugh, shine and be [A] _ _ [Dm]
long and share the good times [Fm] while we can
[G] I beg [Dm] your pardon, [G] I never [C] promised you a rose garden
Along [Dm] with your sunshine
[G] There's gotta [C] be a little rain sometime
[F] I _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [F] beg [G] your pardon, I never [C] promised you a rose garden
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just [Dm] as soon let you go
But there's [G] one thing I want you to know
You [C] better look before you leap, still waters run deep
And there won't always be [G] someone there [Dm] to pull you out
And you know [G] what I'm talking about
So [Dm] smile for [G] a while and let's be [Gm] jolly
Laugh, shine and be [A] long and [Dm] share the good times [Fm] while we [G] can
I [Dm] beg your pardon, [G] I never [C] promised you a rose garden
Along [Dm] with your sunshine
[G] There's gotta [C] be a little rain sometime
