Go your way and I'll go mine carry on The sky is clearing and the night has cried enough The sun, he come, the world to soften up Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but to carry on The fortunes of fables are able to see the dawn Now witness the quickness with which we get along To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and carry on Carry on Love is coming Love is coming to us all

And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden Well then can I walk beside you I have come to lose the smog And I feel like 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 We are stardust, we are golden We are billion year-old carbon And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden 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 jet planes Riding shotgun in the sky Turning into butterflies Above our nation We are stardust, we are golden We are billion year-old carbon And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

 If I had ever been here before I would probably know just what to do Don't you? If I had ever been here before On another time around the wheel I would probably know just how to deal With all of you And I feel like I've been here before Feel like I've been here before And you know it makes me wonder What's going on under the ground Do you know? Don't you wonder what's going on down under you? We have all been here before We have all been here before We have all been here before We have all been here before

Four and twenty years ago I come into this life
D5
Dsus4

The son of a woman and a man who lived in strife
F

D7
He was tired of being poor
F

And he wasn't into selling door to door
F

And he worked like the devil to be more

A different kind of poverty now upsets me so

Have I driven her away? Is she gone?

I grow weary of the torment, can there be no peace?
F

D7
And I find myself just wishing that my life would simply cease
