Intro Dm F D# Gm Bb

Verse 1

Dm                             F
Spring was never waiting for us 
girl,
                D#          
it ran one step ahead, as we 
                Gm   Bb
followed in a dance.
Dm                                
Between the parted pages and were 
F Dm7?
pressed,
                      D#           
in love's hot fevered iron, like 
                  Gm   Bb
the striped pair of pants.
Dm                         Dm7
I recall the yellow cotton dress,
               D#                  
foaming like a wave, on the ground 
            Gm   Bb
around your knees.
Dm                                
And birds like tender babies in 
   F Dm7?
your hand,
                     D#            
and old men playing checkers, by 
  Gm   Bb  G# Bb
the trees.

Chorus 1

C                                  
MacArthur's Park is melting in the 
Cmaj7
dark,
                            Bb
all the sweet green iceings flowing 
down.
F
Someone left the cake out in the 
rain.

  G     C
I don't think that I can take it.
          Dm
cause it took so long to bake it.
         C                     
And I'll never have that recipe 
 F      D#   C# D# F
again, oh nooo.

Verse 2

F                              
There will be another song for 
Fmaj7          Dm   Bb
me, for I will sing it.
 Bbm                               
There will be another dream for me,
               Fmaj7 F
 someone will bring it.
  Bb
I will drink the wine while it is 
warm
Gm         Bb               Am  
and never let you catch me 
              D7
looking in the sun.
    Gm                        Bb
and after all the loves of my life,
 Fmaj7                     Bb 
after all the loves of my life, 
                      D#   G#   C
you'll still be the one.

Verse 3

       G                    Bm    
I will take my life into my hands 
           C   Cmaj7
and I will use it.
   Am6                         
I will win the worship in their 
                    D    G
eyes, and I will lose it.
       C
I will have the things that I 
desire,
Cmaj7  Am                Bm     
and my passion flow like rivers 
           E
to the sky.
 E7 Am                         C
And after all the loves of my life,
         G                        
woah... after all the loves of my 
C
life,
                     F      
I'll be thinking of you, and 
 D         Em   G  Bb  C
wondering why.
