- Em
          I came upon a child of God
        -        Am
        - he was walking down the road,
        -        Am
          when I asked him "where are you going?"
        -          Em
          This he told me;
         Em
        - "I'm going down to Yasgur's farm,
        -            Am
        - Think I'll join a rock and roll band,
        -Am                                           Em
        - I'll camp out on the land, I'll try set my soul free."
        -
        - CHORUS
        -              Am               Em
        -       We are stardust, we are golden
        -       Em                  Am
                and we've got to get ourselves
        -                  Em
                back to the garden.
         
        - Em D/E Em D/E
         
        - Em
          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.
        - Em
          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.
         
        -      Em     Am               Em
        -       We are stardust, we are golden
        -       Em                   Am
                and we've got to get ourselves
        -                  |Em
                back to the garden.
         
        - Em D/E Em D/E
         
        - Em
        - By the time I got to Woodstock,
        -           Am
        - they were half a million strong,
        -                                  Em
        - everywhere there were songs and celebrations.
          Em
          And I dreamed I saw the bombers
        -        Am
        - riding shotgun in the sky,
        -                                    Em
          turning into butterflies above our nation.
        - Em     Am               Em
        -       We are stardust, we are golden
        -       Em                   Am
                and we've got to get ourselves
        -                 |Em
                back to the garden.
