Both Sides Now Chords by Roger Whittaker

[A] _ This is a Canadian writer, a girl.
I don't think I have to even mention her name really, [Dm] I will.
She's [A] called Joni Mitchell
[D] She [A] comes from not [D] too far away
_ [A] _ _ [D]
She [A] wrote the lovely song [D] which I've sung for a [A] long time now
[D] And I love doing it with a [A] beautiful orchestra to play [D] with
Because [A] it sounds so rich [D] and round and true.
[A] It's a song called Both [D] Sides Now
[A] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ bows and [D] floats an angel
[A] _ _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ [D]
In [A] the air
And feathers [D] dance
_ [Bm] _ Everywhere
_ I've looked at [E] clouds that look
_ _ [A] But now they [D] only block the sun
[A] _ _ They rain [Dbm] and snow [D] on [A] everyone
So [D] many things I would have done _ _ [Bm] _ but clouds [E] got in my way
_ _ [A] I've looked at clouds [D] from the [A] east [D] now
[A] From up and down
And still somehow it's [D] cloudy
_ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ [A] _ I really don't know
But _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [E]
I [A] know
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _
[D] _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] Moons [D] and [A] hues [D] and [A] fantasies
_ The vivid [Dbm] dancing [D] waves
[A] _ _ When [D] every fairy tale becomes [Bm] real
_ _ I've looked at [E] love that way
But [A] now [D] it's just a [A] show
_ You [Dbm] leave them laughing [D] when you [A] go
_ And if [D] you care, don't let them know
[Bm] _ _ Don't give [E] yourself away
_ _ [A] I've looked [D] at love from both [A] sides now
[D] From giving [A] taste and still somehow
[Dbm] It's [D] love's illusions I [A] [D] before
[A] _ I really don't [Em] know
But _ _ _ _ [E] _ [A] I [D] know
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Eb] _ Moons feeling [Bb] proud
To say [Dm] I love you
[Eb] Right [Bb] out loud
Dreams [Eb] and schemes [Cm] and circus crafts _ _
I've looked at [F] life that way
But [Bb] now old friends are acting _ strange
They shake their [Dm] heads
[Eb] They [Bb] say I've changed
But [Eb]
something's [Cm] lost
And something's gained
_ In living [F] every day
[Bb] I've looked at [Eb] life from both [Bb] sides [Eb] now
From [Bb] green and blue
[Eb] [Bb] And still somehow
[Dm] It's [Eb] love's [Bb] illusions I recall
[Eb] _ [Bb] I really don't know
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
