MacArthur Park Richard Harris
MacArthur Park chords
Jim Webb / Richard Harris
[Dm] [Dm] [Eb] [Gm]
[Dm]Spring was never waiting for us, [F]girl
It ran one step a[Eb]head
As we followed in the [Gm]dan[Gm]ce[Bb] [G#] [Gm]
[Dm]Between the parted pages and were [F]pressed,
In love's hot, fevered [Eb]iron
Like a striped pair of [Gm]pan[Gm]ts[Bb] [G#] [Gm]
Mac[C]Arthur Park is melting in the [Cmaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [C11]flowing down...
[F]Someone left the cake out in the [Fmaj7]rain
and I don't [C]think that I can take it
'cause it [Dm7]took so long to bake it
and I'll [C]never have that [Cmaj7]recipe a[C]gain
Oh, [Eb]no!
[Dm]I recall the yellow cotton [F]dress
foaming like a [Eb]wave
on the ground around your [Gm]kne[Gm]es[Bb] [G#] [Gm]
The [Dm]birds, like tender babies in your [F]hands
and the old men playing [Eb]checkers by the [Gm]tre[Gm]es[Bb] [G#] [Gm]
Mac[C]Arthur Park is melting in the [Cmaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [C11]flowing down...
[F]Someone left the cake out in the [Fmaj7]rain
and I don't [C]think that I can take it
'cause it [Dm7]took so long to bake it
and I'll [C]never have that [Cmaj7]recipe a[C]gain
Oh, [Eb]no!
[F]There will be another song for [Fmaj7]me
For I will [Bb]sing [Bbm]it
[Bb]There will be another dream for me
Someone will [Fmaj7]bring [F]it
[Bb]I will drink the wine while it is [Gm]warm
and [Am]never let you catch me looking at the [D7]sun
And [Gm]after all the loves of my [C11]life
[Fmaj7]after all the [F]loves of my [Bb]life
You'll still be the [Eb]one.[C11]
I will [F]take my life into my [Fmaj7]hands
and I will [Bb]use [Bbm]it
[Bb]I will win the worship in their eyes
and I will [Fmaj7]lose [F]it
[Bb]I will have the things that I de[Gm]sire
and my [Am]passion flow like rivers through the [D7]sky.
And [Gm]after all the loves of my [C11]life
[Fmaj7]After all the [F]loves of my [Bb]life
I'll be thinking of [Eb]you
and wondering [Dm]why.
[F]MacArthur Park is [Bb]melting in the [Fmaj7]dark
All the sweet, green icing [F]flowing [F7]down...
[Bb]Someone left the cake out in the rain
and I don't [Dm]think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
and I'll [G7]never have that recipe a[Bbm]gain
Oh,[F] no! [C11] Oh [G#]no
