	        Intro: A D (x4)  

#1.  
A        D              A  
Bows and flows of angel hair   
                        C#m     D      A  
and ice-cream castles in the air,  
A           D            Bm          D  
Feather canyons everywhere:  
                                       E  
I've looked at clouds that way.  
    A        D    A  
But now they only block the sun.   
                       C#m     D    A  
They rain, they snow on everyone.  
A       D                             Bm  
So many things I would have done,  
                                E  
but clouds got in my way.  

A D A I've looked at clouds from both sides now, D A D A E From up and down, and still somehow A D it's clouds' illusions I recall— Bm E7 A D A D I really don't know clouds, at all.
A D A D C#m Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels, D A the dizzy, dancing way you feel. D Bm as every fairy tale comes real— E I've looked at love that way. A D A But now it's just another show: C#m D A Leave 'em laughing when you go, A D Bm And if you care, don't let 'em know; E Don't give yourself away.
A D A D I've looked at love from both sides now, A D A E from give and take, and still somehow A D it's love's illusions I recall. Bm E7 A I really don't know love at all.
(INTERLUDE:) A D A D A (x2) A D A Tears and fears and feeling proud C#m D A to say 'I love you' right out loud. A D Bm Dreams and schemes and circus crowds: E I've looked at life that way. A D A But now old friends are acting strange. C#m D A They shake their heads and say I've changed. A D Bm E Well, something's lost but something's gained living every day.
A D A D I've looked at life from both sides now, A D A from win and lose and still somehow E A D Bm it's life's illusions I recall. Bm E7 A I really don't know life at all. A D A D A (x4)
