VERSE:
G minorGm
Well then, can I walk beside you?
G7G7 C majorC Csus4Csus4
I have come here to lose the smog,
C majorC Csus4Csus4 G minorGm
And I feel as I`m a cog in something turning.
G minorGm
And maybe it`s the time of year,
G7G7 C majorC Csus4Csus4
Yes, and maybe it`s the time of man.
C majorC Csus4Csus4 G minorGm
And I don`t know who I am, but life is for learning.

VERSE:
G minorGm
By the time we got to Woodstock,
G7G7 C majorC Csus4Csus4
We were half a million strong
C majorC Csus4Csus4 G minorGm
And everywhere was song and a celebration.
G minorGm
And I dreamed I saw the bombers, jet planes
G7G7 C majorC Csus4Csus4
Riding shotgun in the sky,
C majorC Csus4Csus4
Turning into butterflies
G minorGm
Above our nation.
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G
We are stardust, we are golden
C majorC G+G
We are caught in a devils bargain
Bb majorBb FF C majorC G+G FF
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
