[Em7] [F] [G]
Chorus
Mac [A] Arthur's Park is melting in the [Amaj7] dark All the sweet, green icing [A7] flowing down
[D] Someone left the cake out in the [F#m] rain
I don't [A] think that I can take it
'cause it [Bm] took so long to bake it
and I'll [A] never have that recipe a-[D] gain Oh, [C] NOOOO! [Am]

[Em7] [Em7] [Em7] [Bm7]
[Bm] I recall the yellow cotton [D] dress foaming like a [C] wave
On the ground beneath your [Em] knees
[Bm] Birds like tender babies in your [D] hands and the old men playing
[C] Chinese checkers by the [Em] trees

Mac [G] Arthur's Park is melting in the [Gmaj7] dark All the sweet, green icing [G7] flowing down

I don't [Em] think that I can take it
'cause it took [Em7] so long to bake it
and I'll [G] never have that recipe a-[C] gain Oh, [G] NOOOO!
