CAPO ON SIX OR SEVEN!!!
(it sounds fine on either, just see which suits your vocal range best.
It does sound good on lower frets too.)
These chords are a somewhat easier to sing cover for the video version of
Joni performing Woodstock live on BBC in 1970...it's very easy to find on
the internet and a great performance.
I tried and tried to find some of these chord names with chordbook, but when
i searched the chord names it gave me it came up with differnet finger
placements...so here is a chord chart and I'm sorry if the names don't match
properly!

Em I came upon a child of God D Dsus He was walking along the road D Dsus I asked him, where are you going? Em And this he told me Em I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm, D Dsus Gonna join in a rock and roll band. D Dsus Em Get camp out on the land and get my soul free.
[Chorus]
Em Cadd9 A7sus4/E Gmaj Cmaj7/E We are stardust, we are golden, Em Dsus D Asus4/E G Em And we got to get ourselves back to the ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
[Verse 2]
Em So can I walk beside you? D Dsus I've come here to lose the smog, D Dsus Em I feel to be a cog in something turning. Em Maybe it's just the time of year, D Dsus Maybe it's the time of man. D Dsus Em I don't know who I am, but life is for learning.
[Chorus]
Em Cadd9 A7sus4/E Gmaj Cmaj7/E We are stardust, we are golden, Em Dsus D Asus4/E G Em And we got to get ourselves back to the ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
[Verse 3]
Em By the time we got to Woodstock, D Dsus We were half a million strong D Dsus Em And Everywhere there was song and celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bombers
D Dsus Riding shotgun in the sky, D Dsus Turning into butterflies Em Above our nation.
[Chorus]
Em Cadd9 A7sus4/E Em We are stardust, billion year old carbon, Gmaj Cmaj7/E we are golden Em Caught in a devils bargain Em Cadd9 Asus4/E Dsus D Asus4/E G Em And we got to get ourselves back to the ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
