E5                F#5 
Well once upon a time 
B5                      E5 
When I held you in my arms 
                    F#5 
On a blanket in the grass 
B5                            E5 
Where we'd watch the falling stars 
                     F#5 
Under that old maple tree 
B5                         E5 
We'd share secrets in the dark 
                    F#5 
Now I sit here all alone 
                   B5 
Watching children play 
              E5 
In Mackenzie Park 
 

       A5       F#5          G#5     A5 
And we lived, laughed, and loved as if 
E5 
There were no tomorrow 
   A5         F#5     G#5   A5 
Up until the day you went away 
B5 
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
