Tuning:EADGBE
The trickiest part of this arrangement is the fact that Janis Ian changes key several times.
If you play along to the video linked here - I suggest you pause the playing and alter your capo
- then the chord pattern (for the verses at least) is pretty straightforward.
Start with capo on fret 1:

The other tricky bit is the chorus chords - enjoy.
And there are also some short instrumental breaks around the Capo changes which I haven't dealt with.

Honey, would you sing it just for me?

Drummer, play that ol' time melody. Change to CAPO 6 - F#

Bright lights and promises that's all it's for

Leave and enter by the service door
F Fm C
Now, I'm gold lame' and diamonds even if my gold is worn
Ab7 G7 C
Honey, can you show me more?
