Intro: Em G F Am F Am C C/B Em G F Am F Am C C/B 

Em                                G                    
Spring was never waiting for us, girl 
                         F                             Am   F  Am  C C/B 
It ran one step ahead as we followed in the dance 
   Em                               G                           
Between the parted pages and were pressed,  
                          F                        Am   F  Am  C  C/B 
In love's hot, fevered iron like a striped pair of pants 
    D              D4     D  D9  D   D7M        
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark  
       D7M/9    D7M  Dm7/9  D    D7 
All the sweet, green icing flowing down 
G                 Am7       D9            G             
Someone left the cake out in the rain  
   Em7 A7      D              A7 
I don't think that I can take it 
          Em7             F#m7           
'Cause it took so long to bake it 
             Bm7             Bm7/E    G  G/F#  F    D7 
And I'll never have that recipe again     oh, no 
Em                           G              
I recall the yellow cotton dress 
                     F                              Am   F  Am  C  C/B 
Foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees 
    Em                                 G                      
The birds, like tender babies in your hands  
         F                               Am   F  Am  C  C/B 
And the old men playing checkers by the trees 
    D              D4     D  D9  D   D7M      
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark  
         D7M/9    D7M  Dm7/9  D    D7 
All the sweet, green icing flowing down 
G                 Am7     D9      G            
Someone left the cake out in the rain  
    Em7 A7      D              A7 
I don't think that I can take it 
          Em7             F#m7           
'Cause it took so long to bake it    
             Bm7             Bm7/E    G  G/F#  F    D7 
And I'll never have that recipe again     oh, no 

Interlude: Bb  F7M  Am7 G/B Am7 Em G F Am F Am C C/B Em G F Am F  
Am C C/B

G               G/F#         Em      Em7     C7M  C7M/9 
There will be another song for me, for I will sing it 
Cdim                            D7        Cdim      G9   G 
There will be another dream for me  someone will bring it 
        C7M                                             
I will drink the wine while it is warm 
      Am7   Cdim    Am7       Bm                   E7 
And never let you catch me looking at the sun 
    Am             Am7+       Am7   D7 Am7  
And after all the loves of my life              
G              G/F#       C7M              C7M/9    F7M 
After all the loves of my life you'll still  be the one 
Cdim    G       G/F#         Em     Em6             C7M C7M/9                    
I will take my life into my hands,        and I will use  it 
      Cdim                       D7      Cdim         G9         G                     
I will win the worship in their eyes    and I will lose it 
              C7M                      Am7 
I will have the things that I desire 
       Cdim    Am7       Bm                  E7 
And my passion flow like rivers through the sky 
    Am             Am7+       Am7  D7 Am7 G             G/F#       C7M 
And after all the loves of my life       after all the loves of my life 
        F7M          Am  Am7+ D7    Cdim      Em  
I'll be thinking of you         and wondering why 
   A7 D                  D4      D   D9  D   D7M 
MacArthur's Park is    melting in the dark 
       D7M/9      D7M Dm7/9    D    D7    
All the sweet, green icing flowing down 
          G                 Am7     D9      G     
Someone left the cake out in the rain 
Em7      A7        D              A7                   Em7             F#m7 
I  don't think that I can take it. 'Cause it took so long to bake it 
         Bm7           Bm7/E    G  G/F#     F   A7    D9  Am7  D9 
And I'll never have that recipe again     oh, no,    oh no
