Glen Campbell and Jimmy Webb: In Session (End Act 1) - MacArthur Park Chords

[Gm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] Spring was never waiting for us, girl It ran one [Eb] step ahead as we followed in [Gm] a
dance _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] Between the parted pages and [F] wordpress
In love's hot fevered ire [Eb] Like a striped pair of [Gm] pants _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] I recall the yellow cotton [F] dress _ Foaming like [Eb] a wave on the ground around [Gm] your
knees And [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] birds like tender babies in your [C] hand
And old men playing [Eb] checkers by [Gm] the trees
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] My cotton flock is melting in the dark All the sweet green icing [Bb] flowing [G] down
[F] Someone left my cake out on the drain And I [C] don't think that I can take it
[Dm] Cause it took so long to bake it [C] And I'll never have that recipe [F] again _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ My [Am] reaction to the mini [Bb]-controversy over the lyrics to MacArthur Park, [Ab] which is, I guess
the controversy is, are they any [Cm] good or do they mean [Ab] anything or is this guy putting
us [Db] on or whatever.
But the answer is, no, I'm not [Eb] putting anybody
on.
It was a love [F] song about somebody that I cared about very much and about a relationship
that was over.
There will be another song for me For I [Bb] will sing
There _
[E] _ _ [Bbm] will be another dream for me Someone [F] will _ breathe _ _
_ I [Bb] will drink the wine while it is warm [Gm]
And never let you catch [Am] me looking in the
sun _ _
[D] _ _ [Gm] And after all the lows of my [C] life
_ _ _ [F] After all the lows of my [Bb] life You'll still [Eb] be the one
I [C] _
_ _ _ [F] will take my life into [F] my hand And I [Bb] will [Gm] use it
[Bb] _ _ _ [Bbm] And I will win the worship in your eyes And [F] I will lose it
_ _ _ [Bb] I will have the things that I [Gm] desire And my passion flow [Am] like a rose to the sky
And _ _ [D] _ [Gm] after all the lows of my [C] life God knows
[F] After all the lows of [Bb] my life I'll be thinking of [Eb] you _
_ _ [C] And wondering [Dm] _ _
why

[Ab] _ _ _ [C] color of the park is melting [G] in the dark All the sweet green [Gm] icing flowing down
[C] Someone [F] let my [F] cake out in the rain
I _ [Am] don't think that I can [E] take it Cause [C] it took so long to [G] bake it
[Gb] And I'll never have that recipe _ [Fm] again _
[C] God bless _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[Eb] my home, _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ sweet home _ _ _
