Intro:
Bm                               A
Spring was never waiting for us, dear.
                 G                           Em     Em  D   D  F
It ran one step ahead, as we followed in the dance.

Chorus:
G   A                               Amaj7
 MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark.
                           A
All the sweet green icing, flowing down.
D                                 Dmaj7
Someone left the cake out, in the rain.
        A
I don't think that I can take it.
          Bm
'Cause it took so long to bake it.
         A                       D
And I'll never have that recipe again...
    C    Am    Em        Em
Oh, no......,  Agaaaah...

Verse 2:
Bm                        D
I recall the yellow cotton dress,
                 C
foaming like a wave.
                           Em      Em
On the ground beneath your knees.
Bm                               D
Birds like tender babies in your hands
D
And the old men playing;
C                         Em     Em
  Chinese checkers by the tree.

Chorus:
   A                                Amaj7
MacArthur's Park is melting, in the dark
                           A
All the sweet green icing, flowing down.
D                                Dmaj7
Someone left the cake out in the rain.
        A
I don't think that I can take it.
          Bm7
'Cause it took so long to bake it.
         A                       Dmaj7
And I'll never have that recipe again...
