Video of me singing the song "Woodstock" by Joni Mitchell... An Anthem of My Generation...

https://youtu.be/fU00k4EXxfI 

"Woodstock" is truly one of the greatest songs of all time. Certainly my generation's finest. Written by Joni Mitchell on Piano... You may see her sing it in the Movie "Celebration at Big Sur." Made famous by Crosby, Stills and Nash. Simple chords Em, A and D... It can be played by anyone in Standard Tuning (EBGDAE). She often used her own tunings.  "Woodstock" was written about the festival but Joni Mitchell did not go. She was scheduled for The Dick Cavett TV Show that conflicted with the festival. That TV show also featured The Jefferson Airplane and CSN who were tired from performing/witnessing the Woodstock Festival.

Chords and Lyrics for "Woodstock" by Joni Mitchell

WOODSTOCK- Joni Mitchell

[Verse 1]
 Em
I came upon a child of God
         A
He was walking along the road

And I asked him "Where are you going?"
      Em
And this he told me

"I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm
               A
I'm gonna join in a rock and roll band

I'm gonna camp out on the land
                    Em
And try and get my soul free"

[Chorus 1]
          A
We are stardust, we are golden
           Em            D                 Em A Em
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
Em
Huy do  do do do do do  huy do  do do do do do

Huy do  do do do do do  huy do  do do

[Verse 2]
Then can I walk beside you
I have come here to lose the smog
And I feel to be a cog in something turning
Well maybe it is just the time of year
Or maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am
But you know life is for learning ...CHORUS #1

By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere there was song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into butterflies
Above our nation ...

[Chorus 2]
We are stardust, billion year old carbon
We are golden, caught in the devil's bargain
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
