Introdução: Em G Em G                                       
 
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 
Refrain 
  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 
Repeat Refrain

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  
I will win the worship in their eyes 
  G9   G              C7M                      Am7 
And I will lose it 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  A7  
I'll be thinking of you    and wondering why
