Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell INTRO: C F C F C Dm F C Em F C Bows and flows of angel hair, and ice-cream castles in the air F Dm G And feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way C Dm F C Em F C But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone F Dm F G So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way CHORUS: C Dm 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 F Dm7 G7 C F C F C F I really don't know clouds at all C Dm F C Em F C Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels, the dizzy, dancing way you feel F Dm F G As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way C Dm F C Em F C But now it's just another show, you leave them laughing when you go F Dm F G And if you care, don't let them know, don't give yourself away CHORUS: C Dm F C I've looked at love from both sides now F C F C From give and take, and still somehow Em F C It's love's illusions I recall F Dm7 G7 C F C F C F I really don't know love at all C Dm F C Em F C Tears and fears and feeling proud, to say, "I love you" right out loud F Dm F G Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, I've looked at life that way C Dm F C Em F C But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, they say I've changed F Dm F G But something's lost and something's gained, in living every day CHORUS: C Dm F C I've looked at life from both sides now F C F C From win and lose, and still somehow Em F C It's life's illusions I recall, F Dm7 G7 C F C F C I really don't know life at all CHORUS: C Dm F C I've looked at life from both sides now F C F C From win and lose, and still somehow Em F C It's life's illusions I recall, F Dm7 G7 C F C F C I really don't know life at all
