G                C      G 
Bows and flows of angel hair 
                      C      G 
And ice cream castles in the air 
             C      C/B    Am 
And feather canyons everywhere 
                           D 
I've looked at clouds that way 
     G              C        G 
But now they only block the sun 
                       C    G 
They rains and snow on everyone 
          C      C/B         Am 
So many things I could have done 
                     D 
But clouds got in my way 

         G                     C          G 
   I've looked at clouds from both sides now 
        C       G          C        G 
   From up and down, and still somehow 
          B               C  G 
   It's clouds' illusions I recall 
      G   C  G      E    C       G 
   I really don't know clouds at all 

 G                  C      G 
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels 
                   C       G 
The dizzy, dancing way you feel 
           C     C/B        Am 
When every fairy tale comes real 
                         D 
I've looked at love that way 
     G             C      G 
But now it's just another show 
                         C      G 
You leave them, laughing as you go 
           C           C/B      Am 
And if you care, don't let them know 
                    D 
Don't give yourself away 

         G                   C          G 
   I've looked at love from both sides now 
      C         G          C        G 
 From give and take, and still somehow 
      B               C   G 
It's love's illusions I recall 
    G   C  G     E    C      G 
 I really don't know love at all 

 G                  C       G 
Tears and fears and feeling proud 
                     C         G 
To say, "I love you" right out loud 
           C           C/B    Am 
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds 
                         D 
I've looked at life that way 
    G                   C      G 
But now old friends are acting strange 
                             C        G 
They shake their heads, they say I've changed 
                C        C/B         Am 
But something's lost and something's gained 
                D 
In living every day 

      G                   C         G 
I've looked at life from both sides now 
     C       G           C        G 
From win and lose, and still somehow 
      B               C   G 
It's life's illusions I recall 
   G  C   G    E     C      G 
I really don't know life at all
