Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell; as recorded by Judy Collins

Verse 1: G C G Gmaj7 C G Bows and flows of angel hair And ice cream castles in the air G C Am7 D And feather canyons everywhere I've looked at clouds that way

Verse 2: G C G Gmaj7 C G But now they only block the sun They rain and snow on everyone G C Am7 D So many things I would have done But clouds got in my way

Chorus: G C G I've looked at clouds from both sides now C G C G From up and down, and still somehow Gmaj7 Am7 G Em C D G It's cloud’s illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all

Verse 3: G C G Gmaj7 C G Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels The dizzy dancing way you feel G C Am7 D As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way

Verse 4: G C G Gmaj7 C G But now it's just another show You leave 'em laughing when you go G C Am7 D And if you care, don't let them know Don't give yourself away

Chorus: G C G I've looked at love from both sides now C G C G From win and lose, and still somehow Gmaj7 Am7 G Em C D G It's cloud’s illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all

Verse 5: G C G Gmaj7 C G Tears and fears and feeling proud To say "I love you" right out loud G C Am7 D Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I've looked at life that way

Verse 6: G C G But now old friends are acting strange Gmaj7 C G They shake their heads, they say I've changed G C Am7 D Well something's lost, but something's gained, in living every day

Chorus: G C G I've looked at life from both sides now C G C G From win and lose, and still somehow Gmaj7 Am7 G Em C D G It's life’s illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all

Me & Bobby McGee By Kris Kristofferson & Fred Foster

(C)Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains, Feelin' nearly faded as my (G7)jeans. Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained, Took us all the way to New Or(C)leans. I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana And was blowin' sad while (C7)Bobby sang the (F)blues, With them windshield wipers slappin' time and Bobby (C)clappin' hands we finally (G7)sang up every song that driver (C)knew.

(F)Freedom's just another word for (C)nothin' left to lose (G7)Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's (C)free, (F)Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when (C) Bobby sang the blues, (G7)And feelin’ good was good enough for me, Good enough for me and my Bobby Mc(C)Gee.

(C)From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun, Bobby shared the secrets of my (G7)soul, Standin' right beside me through everythin' I done, And every night she kept me from the (C)cold. Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away, Lookin' for the (C7)home I hope she'll (F)find, And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a (C)single yesterday, (G7)Holdin' Bobby's body close to (C)mine.

(F)Freedom's just another word for (C)nothin' left to lose, (G7)Nothin' left was all she left for (C)me, (F)Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when (C)Bobby sang the blues, (G7)And buddy, that was good enough for me. Good enough for me and Bobby Mc(C)Gee.
