Verse 1
G        C        D     G
Bows and flows of angel hair
              Bm      C      G
And ice-cream castles in the air
            C
And feather canyons everywhere
                           D
I've looked at clouds that way
    G        C    D         G
But now they only block the sun
              Bm      C    G
They rain and snow on everyone
        C
So many things I would have done
                     D
But clouds got in my way
 
Chorus 1
     G                     C          G
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
     C      G        C         G
From up and down and still somehow
     Bm       C      D   G
It's cloud illusions I recall
  Am     G          D             G   C  D  G
I really don't know clouds.....at all
 
Verse 2
G         C         D      G
Moons and dunes and ferris wheels
          Bm      C       G
The dizzy dancing way you feel
         C
As every fairy tale comes real
                         D
I've looked at love that way
    G        C      D     G
But now it's just another show
               Bm       C        G
You leave them laughing when you go
           C
And if you care don't let them know
                     D
Don't give yourself away
 
Chorus 2
     G                   C          G
I've looked at love from both sides now
     C        G        C         G
From give and take and still somehow
     Bm        C      D   G
It's love's illusions I recall
  Am     G          D           G    C  D  G x 2
I really don't know love.....at all
 
Verse 3
G         C         D       G
Tears and fears and feeling proud
         Bm       C         G
To say I love you right out loud
           C
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
                         D
I've looked at life that way
    G       C           D      G
But now old friends are acting strange
                 Bm         C        G
They shake their heads they say I've changed
                C
But something's lost and something's gained
                D
In living every day
 
Chorus 3
     G                   C          G
I've looked at life from both sides now
     C       G        C         G
From win and lose and still somehow
     Bm       C       D   G
It's life's illusions I recall
  Am      G         D           G    C  D  G x 2
I really don't know life.....at all
