D A D F# A D  Capo 4

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

CHORUS:
         C          F           C
   I've looked at clouds from both sides now
        F       C          F        C
   From up and down, and still somehow
          Em        F      C
   It's clouds' illusions I recall
      C   F  C    Am      Gsus G    C
   I really don't know clouds    at all

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

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

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

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

version 5




Tuning:D A D F# A D
Capo:4th fret
 
Two ways to tune - open D (D A D F# A D), capo on four, or open E (E B E G# B E) capo on two.
 
Both work well - for the sake of easiness, I'll say it's open D.

version 6





Tuning:D A D F# A D
Capo:4th fret
 
Two ways to tune - open D (D A D F# A D), capo on four, or open E (E B E G# B E) capo on two.
 
Both work well - for the sake of easiness, I'll say it's open D.

[Verse 1]
 
Dmaj7    G/B   D  A7   D G/B D
Rows and floes of angel hair
    A7sus4    A7          D   A7  D
And ice cream castles in the air
   Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7     D  G/B  D
And feather canyons everywhere
     Dmaj7      G/B   D    A7sus4
I've looked at clouds that way
 
   Dmaj7     G/B   D  A7     D G/B D
But now they only block the sun
    A7sus4    A7      D      A7  D
They rain and snow on everyone
   Dmaj7   G/B   D   A7       D  G/B  D
So many   things I would have done
     Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7sus4
But clouds got in   my  way
 
[Chorus 1]
     D            D  A7       D    A7   D
I've looked at clouds   from both sides now
     D  A7  D         D     A7  D  Dmaj7
From up and down, and still somehow
     G/B             D  G/B  D
It's cloud illusions I  recall
D        G/B   D    A7sus4          D    G/B D   G/B  D
I really don't know clouds      at all
 
D   G/B D   G/B  D
 
[Verse 2]
 
Dmaj7    G/B   D  A7   D G/B D
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
    A7sus4    A7      D      A7  D
The dizzy, dancing way you feel
   Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7     D  G/B  D
As every fairy tale comes real
     Dmaj7      G/B   D   A7sus4
I've looked at love that way
 
Dmaj7    G/B   D  A7   D G/B D
But now it's just another show
    A7sus4    A7      D      A7  D
You leave 'em laughing when you go
   Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7     D  G/B  D
And if you care don't let them know
     Dmaj7      G/B   D   A7sus4
Don't give yourself away
 
[Chorus 2]
 
     D            D  A7       D    A7   D
I've looked at love from both sides now
     D  A7  D         D     A7  D  Dmaj7
From give and take and still somehow
     G/B             D  G/B  D
It's love's illusions I recall
D        G/B   D    A7sus4          D    G/B D   G/B  D
I really don't know love at all
 
D   G/B D   G/B  D
 
[Verse 3]
 
Dmaj7    G/B   D  A7   D G/B D
Tears and fears and feeling proud
    A7sus4    A7      D      A7  D
To say, "I love you" right out loud
   Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7     D  G/B  D
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
     Dmaj7      G/B   D   A7sus4
I've looked at life that way
Dmaj7    G/B   D  A7   D G/B D
But now old friends are acting strange
    A7sus4    A7      D      A7  D
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
   Dmaj7    G/B   D   A7     D  G/B  D
Well something's lost but something's gained
     Dmaj7      G/B   D   A7sus4
In living every day
 
[Chorus 3]
 
      D                  G          D
I've looked at life from both sides now
     D  A7  D         D     A7  D  Dmaj7
From win and lose and still somehow
     G/B             D  G/B  D
It's life's illusions I recall
D        G/B   D    A7sus4          D    G/B D   G/B  D
I really don't know life, at all

Oh, but now old friends, they're acting strange
And they shake their heads and they tell me that I've changed
Well, something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life
I really don't know life at all

Tuning:D A D F# A D
Capo:no capo
 
NOTES:
Tuning is Open D (DADF#AD). In concert, JM capoes at the 5th fret. The
recording on "Clouds" sounds as if it's capoed at 4 but that might just be
how the recording came out. So, take your pick...
 
Chord names below are for Open D tuning with no capo. Capo 4 or 5 will mean
the chord names will change but the voicings are valid and are numbered
either from the nut (i.e. no capo) or the capo position. Timing is 4/4.
