E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
A total massacre of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides, Now", from Hole's 1991 debut
album 'Pretty on the Inside'. This is the closing track to the album, and is easy
to play. Just two chords, but if you want to capture the same sound on the album,
you'll need a wah pedal and a flanger to get that noisy sweeping effect. Play with
lots of distortion.

[Verse]
GCGC
Rows and flows of angel hair
GCGC
And ice cream castles in the air
GCGC
And feather canyons everywhere, I've
GCGC
Looked at clouds
GCGC
That way
[Verse]
GCGC
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
GCGC
The dizzy dancing way you feel when
GCGCG
When every fairytale comes real, I've
CGC
Looked at clouds
GCGC
That way
[Verse]
GCGC
But now they only block the sun
GCGC
They rain and snow on everyone, so
GCGC
So many things that I could have done, but
GCGC
Clouds got in...
GCGC
My angel dust gets in your eyes and hair
GCGC
On acid stars, you're getting there
GC
My body is a temple but I'm only going to give it to you
GC
When you die
GCGC
I've looked at life
GCGC
That way
[Verse]
GCGC
But now it's just another show
GCGC
You leave 'em laughing when you go
GC
Don't, don't let them in, don't,
GC
Don't let them know, don't
GCGCGCGC
Give yourself away
GCGC
And now my friends are acting strange
GC
They shake their heads, man
GC
They say I've changed, well,
GCGC
Well, something's wrong and rearranged
GCGC
From living every, every...
[Chorus]
GCGC
I've looked at life from both sides now
GCGC
From win and lose and still somehow, it's
GCGC
It's life's illusions I recall, I
GC
I really don't know
GC
I really don't know
GC
I really don't know
GC
I really don't know
GCGCGCG
I really don't know know life at all
CGC
Count your stars, say goodnight
