Тональность
Chorus:
C Dm
I beg your pardon,
G C
I never promised you a rose garden.
Dm
Along with the sunshine,
G C
There's gotta be a little rain sometimes.
F
When you take, you gotta give,
Dm
so live and let live, or let go.
G - G7
I beg your pardon,
C
I never promised you a rose garden.
C
1. I could promise you things
like big diamond rings,
But you don't find roses growin'
Dm
on stalks of clover.
G
So you better think it over.
C
Well, if sweet-talkin' you
could make it come true,
I would give you the world right now
Dm
on a silver platter,
G
But what would it matter?
Dm G
So smile for a while and let's be jolly:
Gm A
Love shouldn't be so melancholy.
Dm
Come along and share the good times
Fm - G
while we can.

C
2. I could sing you a tune
or promise you the moon,
But if that's what it takes to hold you,
Dm
I'd just as soon let you go,
G
but there's one thing I want you to know.
C
You better look before you leap,
still waters run deep,
And there won't always be someone there
Dm
to pull you out,
G
And you know what I'm talkin' about.
Dm G
So smile for a while and let's be jolly:
Gm A
Love shouldn't be so melancholy.
Dm
Come along and share the good times
Fm - G
while we can.
