VERSE:
 Gm
Well I came upon a child of God
G7      C                Csus4
He was walking along the road
                  C                    Csus4
And I asked him, tell me where are you going?
        Gm
This he told me
Gm
Said I`m going down to Yasgur`s Farm,
G7     C                      Csus4
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
        C              Csus4           Gm
Got to get back to the land and set my soul free.


CHORUS:
        C                G
We are stardust, we are golden
        C                G
We are billion year old carbon
          Bb               F                 C    G    F
And we`ve got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den


VERSE:
           Gm
Well then, can I walk beside you?
G7      C                    Csus4
I have come here to lose the smog,
       C              Csus4           Gm
And I feel as I`m a cog in something turning.
Gm
And maybe it`s the time of year,
G7        C                    Csus4
Yes, and maybe it`s the time of man.
       C               Csus4                  Gm
And I don`t know who I  am,  but life is for learning.


CHORUS:
        C                G
We are stardust, we are golden
        C                G
We are billion year old carbon
          Bb               F                 C    G    F
And we`ve got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den


INSTRUMENTAL SOLO over these chords: Gm C Csus4  C  Csus4  Gm


CHORUS:
        C                G
We are stardust, we are golden
        C                G
We are billion year old carbon
          Bb               F                 C    G    F
And we`ve got to get ourselves back to the gaaar aaar den


VERSE:
        Gm
By the time we got to Woodstock,
G7       C              Csus4
We were half a million strong
      C            Csus4         Gm
And everywhere was song and a celebration.
Gm
And I dreamed I saw the bombers, jet planes
G7      C             Csus4
Riding shotgun in the sky,
         C          Csus4
Turning into butterflies
          Gm
Above our nation.


CHORUS:
        C                G
We are stardust, we are golden
          C                    G
We are caught in a devils bargain
          Bb               F                 C    G    F
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...
                               Thanks
