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 t
 i searched th
 placements...
 properly!

[Verse 1]


I came upon a 

child of God
             
He was walking

           
 along the roa


d
             
I asked him, w

              
here are you g


oing?
            
And this he to

ld me

I'm going down

 to Yasgur's F

arm,
             
Gonna join in 

              
a rock and rol

  
l band.

             
Get camp out o

          
n the land and

        
 get my soul f

ree.

[Chorus]
      
We are  stardu

       
st,     we are

    
   golden,
            
And we got to 

              
get ourselves 

            
back to the ga

    
---aa--aa-----

   
-ar-den.


[Verse 2]


So can I walk 

beside you?
             
I've come here

             
 to lose the s


mog,
             
I feel to be  

          
a cog in somet

     
hing turning.

Maybe it's jus

t the time of 

year,
             
Maybe it's the

         
 time of man.
             
I don't know w

          
ho I am,  but 

            
life is for le

arning.


[Chorus]
      
We are  stardu

       
st,     we are

    
   golden,
            
And we got to 

              
get ourselves 

            
back to the ga

    
---aa--aa-----

   
-ar-den.

[Verse 3]


By the time we

 got to Woodst

ock,
             
We were half a

         
 million stron

g
             
And Everywhere

           
 there was son

         
g and celebrat

ion.

And I dreamed I saw the bombers

             
Riding shotgun

       
 in the sky,
             
Turning into b

     
utterflies
          
Above our nati

on.

[Chorus]

    
We are stardus

       
t,      billio

   
n year old car

bon,
       
we are golden

 


Caught in a de

vils bargain

       
And we got to 

       
get ourselves 

            
back to the ga

    
---aa--aa-----

   
-ar-den.
