[Db] [Ab] [Db] [Ab] [Db] [Ab] [Db] [Ab]
Goes and flows [Db] of angel [Ab] hair, and ice [Db] cream castles in [Ab] the air, [Db] [Bbm] canyons everywhere.
I've looked at [Eb] clouds that [Ab] way, but now they only [Db] block [Ab] the sun.
They rain [Cm] and snow [Db] on [Ab] everyone, [Db] so many things [Bbm] I would have done.
But clouds got [Eb] in my [Ab] way.
I've looked [Db] both [Ab] sides now, [Db] from up [Ab] and down, [Db] and still [Ab] somehow,
it's [Db] clouds' illusions I [Ab] recall.
I really don't [Db] know clouds [Eb] [Ab] [Db] at all.
[Db] [Ab] [Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] Moons and dunes [Ab] and ferris wheels, the dizzy [Db] dancing [Ab] way you feel,
[Db] when [Bbm] every fairy tale comes real.
I've [Eb] looked at love that [Ab] way, but now [Db] it's just [Ab] another show.
Believe them, [Db] laugh, [Ab] [Db] and if [Bbm] you care, don't let them know.
Don't [Eb] give yourself away.
[Ab] [Ab] I've looked both sides now, [Ab] from [Db] the moon [Ab] and still somehow,
[Db] it's love's illusions [Ab] I recall.
I really [Db] don't know [Eb] [Ab] love [Db] at [Ab] all.
[Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] [Db] [Ab] Tears [Db] and fears [Ab] and feeling proud, [Cm] to say I [Db] love you.
[Ab] [Db] I've looked at dreams [Bbm] and schemes and circus crowds.
I've [Eb] looked at life that [Ab] way, but now [Db] old friends [Ab] are acting strange.
[Cm] They shake [Db] their heads.
[Ab] They say I've [Db] changed.
Well, [Bbm] something's lost, but something's gained, in [Eb] living every [Ab] day.
I've looked at [Ab] lies [Db] now, [Ab] from winning, [Db] lose, [Ab] and still somehow,
[Db] it's life's illusions I [Ab] recall.
I really don't [Db] know [Eb] [Ab] life at [Db] all.
