{c: 1. Vers}
[Gmaj7]Rows and [C/G]flows of [D7/G]angel [G]hair
And icecream [D7sus4/G]castles [C/G]in the [D7sus4/G]air
[G] And feather [C/G]canyons [Am7]everywhere,
[C] I've looked at [Am7]clouds that [Dsus4]way.[D7]
But [Gmaj7]now they [C/G]only [D7/G]block the [G]sun,
They rain and [G/B]snow on [C2]every[C/D]one
[G/B] So many [C]things I [Am7]would have done,
[C] But clouds got [Am7]in my [D7sus4]way.[D7]
{c: Ref 1}
[G] I've looked at [Am/G]clouds from [C/G]both sides [G]now
From [C/G]up and [G]down and [C/G]still some[G]how

I [C]really don't know [Dsus4]clouds [D] at [G]all

[Gmaj7]Moons and [C/G]Junes and [D7/G]Ferris [G]wheels,
The dizzy [D7sus4/G]dancing [C/G]way that you [D7sus4/G]feel
[G] As every [C/G]fairy [Am7]tale comes real,
[C] I've looked at [Am7]love that [Dsus4]way.[D7]
But [Gmaj7]now it's [C/G]just an[D7/G]other [G]show,
You leave'em [G/B]laughing [C2]when you [C/D]go
[G/B] And if you [C]care, don't [Am7]let them know,
[C] Don't give your[Am7]self a[D7sus4]way.[D7]
{c: Ref 2}

{c: 3. Vers}
[Gmaj7]Tears and [C/G]fears and [D7sus4/G]feeling [G]proud,
To say "I [D7sus4/G]love you" [C/G]right out [D7sus4/G]loud
[G] Dreams and [C/G]schemes and [Am7]circus crowds,
[C] I've looked at [Am7]life that [Dsus4]way.[D7]
Oh but [Gmaj7]now old [C/G]friends they're [D7/G]acting [G]strange,
They shake their [G/B]heads, they [C2]say I've [C/D]changed
[G/B] Well something's [C]lost, but [Am7]something's gained
In [C]living [Am7]every [D7sus4]day.[D7]
{c: Ref 3}
[G] I've looked at [Am/G]life from [C/G]both sides [G]now
From [C/G]win and [G]lose and [C/G]still some[G]how
