Like JonPR wrote, Joni plays in lots of alternate tunings. If you follow his advice, not only will you be able to play the song most likely w/o barre chords, but you'll open yourself up to the mind bending world of alternate tunings. There are many sounds, possibilities that you can get in alternate tunings that you can't get in standard tunings
