Em  
I came upon a child of God  
       Am  
he was walking down the road,  

when I asked him "where are you going?"  
         Em  
This he told me;  

"I'm going down to Yasgur's farm,  
           Am  
Think I'll join a rock and roll band,  
                                           Em  
I'll camp out on the land, I'll try set my soul free."

             Am               Em  
      We are stardust, we are golden  
                Am         G 
      and we've got to get ourselves   
                  F#m  
      back to the garden.  


Well then can I walk beside you?  
       Am  
I have come here to lose the smog  
                                        Em  
and I feel just like a cog in something turning.  

Well maybe it's the time of year  
     Am  
or maybe it's the time of man,   
                              Em  
and I don't know who I am but life's for learning.

      We are stardust, we are golden  
                Am         G 
      and we've got to get ourselves   
                  F#m  
      back to the garden.  

By the time I got to Woodstock,  
          Am  
they were half a million strong,  
                                 Em  
everywhere there were songs and celebrations.  

And I dreamed I saw the bombers  
       Am  
riding shotgun in the sky,  
                                   Em  
turning into butterflies above our nation.
