Rose Garden (Live At The Grand Ole Opry, Nashville) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D][G][A][G][D][G]
[Dm]I be[D]g yo[Em]ur pardon
[A]I never promised you a r[D]ose garden
Along with the sun[Em]shine
[A]There's gotta be a lit[F#m]tle
[D]rain some time
When [G]you take you gotta
give so live and let live
Or let go [Em]oh- whoa- whoa- whoa
[G]I beg your pardon[A]
I never promised you [D]a rose garden

[Verse 2]
I could [D]promise you things
like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses
growin' on stalks of [Em]clover
So you better [G]think it [A]over
Well if [F#m]sweet- [D]talkin' you
could make it come true
I would give you the world right
now on a silver [Em]platter
But what would it [A]matter
So [F#m]smile [Em]for a while
and [A]let's be jolly
Love [Am]shouldn't be so mel[B]ancholy
[Em]Come along and share the
good times while we [G]can

[Verse 3]
[A]I beg your par[Em]don
[A]I never promised you[F#m] a rose [D]garden
Along with the sun[Em]shine
[A]There's gotta be a little rai[D]n

[Interlude 1]
some time
[D][G][Gaug][Em]

[Verse 4]
[G]I beg your pardon[A]
I never promised you a [D]rose garden

[Verse 5]
I could [D]sing you a tune and
promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as soon [Em]let you go
But there's one [G]thing I [A]want you to know
[D]You better look before you leap,
still waters run deep
And there won't always be
someone there [Em]to pull you out
And you know what I'm [A]talkin' about
So [Em]smile for a while
and [A]let's be jolly
Love [Am]shouldn't be so mel[B]ancholy
[Em]Come along and share the
good times while we [G]can

[Verse 6]
[A]I beg your par[Em]don[G]
[A]I never promised you a r[D]ose garden

[Verse 7]
Along with the sun[Em]shine
[A]There's gotta be a little rai[D]n some
