Give yourself some time out to enjoy this amazing gift of talent by Sungha Jung...
He's a bit older now than when this piece was recorded - but truly inspiring

Here is Joni Mitchell's earlier version - from 1972...
but this version by Hayley Westentra is the one I prefer at the moment and the one I've used for the chords and lyrics...
Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell - chords and lyrics
Capo on 2
intro: G Am G D
G Am C G Bm C G
Bows and flows of angel hair, and ice-cream castles in the air
C Am D
And feather canyons everywhere - I've looked at clouds that way
G Am C G Bm C G
But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone
C Am D
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way
G Am C G C G
I've looked at clouds from both sides now - from up and down
C G Bm C G
And still somehow it's cloud illusions I recall
C D Dsus D G Am G D
I really don't know clouds at all
G Am C G Bm C G
Moons and dunes and Ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way you feel
C Am D
As every fairytale comes real - I've looked at love that way
G Am C G Bm C G
But now it's just another show - you leave them laughing when you go
C Am D
And if you care, don't let them know - don't give yourself away
G Am C G C G
I've looked at love from both sides now - from give and take
C G Bm C G
And still somehow it's love's illusions I recall
C D Dsus D G Am G D
I really don't know lo__ve at all
G Am C G Bm C G
Tears and fears and feeling proud - to say "I love you" right out loud
C Am D
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds - I've looked at love that way
G Am C G Bm C G
But now old friends are acting strange - they shake their heads, they say I've changed
C Am D
Well some thing's lost but something's gained - in living every day
G Am C G C G
I've looked at life from both sides now - from win and lose
C G Bm C G
And still somehow it's life's illusions I recall
C D Dsus D G Am G D
I really don't know li__fe at all
And here is Joni's 'older and wiser' version for comparison...
