{c:Very simplified !!!!}
[Bm] [Bm] [C] [Em]
[Bm] Spring was never waiting for us, [D] girl, it [G] ran one step a[C]head
As we followed in the [Em] dance [G] [F] [Em]
[Bm] Between the parted pages and were [D] pressed,
In [G] love's hot, fevered [C] iron like a striped pair of [Em] pants [G] [F] [Em]
{c: }
Mac[A]arthur Park is melting in the [Amaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [Em] flowing down...
[D] Someone left the cake out in the [F#m] rain
and I don't [A] think that I can take it
'cause it [Bm7] took so long to bake it
and I'll [A] never have that [Amaj7] recipe a[D]gain
Oh, [C] no!
{c: }
[Bm] I recall the yellow cotton [D] dress, [G] foaming like a [C] wave
on the ground around your [Em] knees [G] [F] [Em]
The [Bm] birds, like tender babies in your [D] hands
and the old men playing [C] checkers by the [Em] trees [G] [F] [Em]
{c: }
Mac[A]arthur Park is melting in the [Amaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [Em] flowing down...
[D] Someone left the cake out in the [F#m] rain
and I don't [A] think that I can take it
'cause it [Bm7] took so long to bake it
and I'll [A] never have that [Amaj7] recipe a[D]gain
Oh, [C] no!
{c: }
[D] There will be another song for [F#m] me
For I will [G] sing [Gm] it
[G] There will be another dream for me
Someone will [F#m] bring [D] it
[G] I will drink the wine while it is [Em] warm
and [F#m] never let you catch me looking at the [B7] sun
And [Em] after all the loves of my [D] life
[F#m] after all the loves of my [G] life
You'll still be the [C] one. [D]
{c: }
I will [D] take my life into my [F#m] hands
and I will [G] use [Gm] it
[G] I will win the worship in their eyes
and I will [F#m] lose [D] it
[G] I will have the things that I de[Em]sire
and my [F#m] passion flow like rivers through the [B7] sky.
And [Em] after all the loves of my life
[F#m] After all the loves of my [G] life
I'll be thinking of [C] you
and wondering [Bm] why
{c: }
Mac[A]arthur Park is melting in the [Amaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [Em] flowing down...
[D] Someone left the cake out in the [F#m] rain
and I don't [A] think that I can take it
'cause it [Bm7] took so long to bake it
and I'll [A] never have that [Amaj7] recipe a[D]gain
Oh, [C] no!
