Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Woodstock (2021 Remaster)
[Verse 1]
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 garden

[Verse 2]
Well, then can I walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog
And I feel myself a cog
In somethin' 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 got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
We are stardust, we are golden
We are billion-year-old carbon
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

[Verse 3]
By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song
And a celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planes
Riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation

[Chorus]
We are stardust, we are golden
We are caught in the devil's bargain
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
