[Verse]
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 & let live or let go
G Am D7 G
I beg your pardon,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 G N.C.
Come along and share the good times while we can
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Am D7
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
E7
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Am C G N.C.
Come along and share the good times while we can
[Chorus]
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
