Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I b[Ab]eg[Abaug][Am][C][D][G][Bb][C][D][C]
[Bb]your[G] par[C]do[G]n,[Em][Gaug][Am]
[D]I never promised you a r[G]ose garden
Ran along with the sun[Am]shine,
[D]there's gotta be a little [G]rain sometimes
When you [C]think you've got
a gift to live in,
then leave or let [Am]go
I beg your par[D]don,
I never promised you a [G]rose garden
I could promise you things
like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses
growing on stalks [Am]of clover
So you better think [D]it over
Well, if [G]we talk and you
would make it come true
I can't be the world right now
on a silver plat[Am]ter
But what would [D]it matter?
So, [Am]smile for a while and [D]let's be jolly
[Bm]Love should be so [Em]melan[E] choly
Come [Am]along,
share the good times while we [C]can
[D]I beg[E] your par[Am]don
[D]I never promised you a g[G]arden
And along with the sun[Am]shine
[D]There's gotta be a little [G]rain sometimes
[C][Abaug][Am][G][C][G][D]
I could [G]sing [D]you[G] a tune
and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as easily [Am]let you go
But there's one thing [D]I
want you to know
You may have a roof [G]before you leave,
still want to run deep
But there will always be
someone there to pull [Am]you out
And you know what [D]I'm talking about
So, [Am]smile for a while and [D]let's be jolly
Love [Bm]shouldn't be so [E]melancholy
Come [Am]along,
share the good times while we [C]can
[D]I b[Em]eg yo[G]ur pardo[Am]n
[D]I never promised to g[G]row the garden
And I won't wait the sun[Am]shine
[D]There's gotta be a little
[G]rain sometimes
When you [C]think you've
got a key to living
Then leave and let [Am]go
Oh, I beg your par[D]don
I never promised you a [G]rose garden,
[G]right?[C][Abaug][Am]
[C]I b[G]eg your[C] pard[G]on[D]
