VERSE:
Well I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, tell me where are you going?
This he told me
Said I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
Got to get back to the land and set my soul free.
CHORUS:
We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we've got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den
VERSE:
Well then, can I walk beside you?
I have come here to lose the smog,
And I feel as I'm a cog in something turning.
And maybe it's the time of year,
Yes, and maybe it's the time of man.
And I don't know who I am, but life is for learning.
CHORUS:
We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we've got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den
SOLO over these chords:
CHORUS:
We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we've got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den
VERSE:
By the time we got to Woodstock,
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was song and a celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bombers, jet planes
Riding shotgun in the sky,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
CHORUS:
We are stardust, we are golden
We are caught in a devils bargain
And we've got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den
OUTRO: INSTRUMENTAL
Note: To me the other versions tabbed were not
playable to the album. This one is close as I
believe that the guitars in the original version
were tuned up 1/2 step... Also, I noticed when
CSN played this later in concert their intro was
nothing like the original version. As stated I
believe that it is difficult to get the original
intro as there were 3 guitars doing it instead of
just one... If someone has a better intro send it
to me and I may change the one I have posted here.
Thanks
