E                F#m 
 Well once upon a time 
 B                      E 
 When I held you in my arms 
                     F#m 
 On a blanket in the grass 
 B                            E 
 Where we'd watch the falling stars 
                      F#m 
 Under that old maple tree 
 B                         E 
 We'd share secrets in the dark 
                     F#m 
 Now I sit here all alone 
                    B 
 Watching children play 
               E 
 In Mackenzie Park 
  
  
  
 (Chorus) 
  
        A       F#m          G#m     A 
 And we lived, laughed, and loved as if 
 E 
 There were no tomorrow 
    A         F#m     G#m   A 
 Up until the day you went away 
 B 
 Leaving only sorrow 
  
  
  
 Now the stars don't shine 
 The way they used to do 
 Like they did when you were mine 
 Perhaps they're lonely too 
 You can barely read the names 
 That I carved inside a heart 
 Now I sit here all alone 
 Watching children play 
 In Mackenzie Park 
  
  
 (Chorus) 
  
  
 Sometimes I think of you 
 And I just have to smile 
 Though forever never was 
 At least we had a little while 
 How time flies when you're young 
 Just like the flicker of a spark 
 Now I sit here all alone 
 Watching children play 
 In Mackenzie Park
