Bows and flows of angel hair, and ice cream castles in the air
G/F# C C/B Am7 D
And feather canyons everywhere I've looked at clouds that way
G C G G7M C G
But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone
G/F# C C/B Am7 D
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in the way
G C G
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
C G C G
From up and down, and still somehow
G7M Am7 G Em C D G
It's clouds illusions I recall; I really don't know clouds at all
G C G G7M C G
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way you feel
G/F# C C/B Am7 D
When every fairy tale comes real I've looked at love that way
G C G G7M C G
But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing as you go
G/F# C C/B Am7 D
And if you care, don't let them know, 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
G7M Am7 G Em C D G
It's love's illusions I recall; I really don't know love at all
G C G G7M C G
Tears and fears and feeling proud to say "I love you" right out loud
G/F# C C/B Am7 D
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I've looked at life that way
G C G
But now old friends are acting strange
G G7M C G
They shake their heads and say I've changed
G/F# Em C C/B Am7 D
But something's lost and something's gained from 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
G7M Am7 G Em C C/B D G
It's life's illusions I recall; I really don't know life at all
