Verse 1

C        F        C          F
Rows and flows of angel hair
C     Em            F      C
  Ice cream castles in the air
F                 Em        Dm
Feathered canyons everywhere
F                        G       G7
   I've looked at clouds that way
C  F             C             F
   Now they only block the sun
C                Em      F        C
   They rain and snow on everyone
   F             Em         Dm
So many things I could have done
                  G      G7
But clouds got in my way

Chorus 1

C              G           F          C
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
     F      C        F         C    Em
From up and down and still somehow
           F         C    F
It's cloud illusions I recall
  Dm                F      G G7    C   F
I really don't know clouds      at all

        E--3-----------------x--|

Verse 2

C            F         C      F
   Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
C            Em  F       C
   Dizzy dancing way you feel
   F           Em         Dm    F
As every fairy tale comes real
                    G        C
I've looked at love that way
F             C            F
Now it's just another show
C             Em                C
   Leave them laughing when you go
    F                 Em            Dm
And if you care don't let them know
F                     G    G7
  Don't give yourself away

Chorus 2

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

        E--0-----------------1--|

Verse 3

C         F         C       F
Tears and fears and feeling proud
C     Em       F         C
Say I love you right out loud
           F           Em     Dm     F
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
                    G        G7
I've looked at life that way
C              F           C      F
   But now old friends are acting strange
C       Em                F             C
   They shake their heads they say I've changed
    F                Em          Dm     F
Something's lost and something's gained
          Em    G   G7
In living every day

Outro

C               F        C          F
I've looked at life from both sides now
C            F        C     F
From win and lose and still somehow
     Em      F        C   Em
It's life's illusions I recall
  Dm           Dm7  G    G7      C
I really don't know life    at all
