 the first part is easy

 C-D-E-G

 the "rising" second part of the verse I have not figured out yet, although I
 know it starts with D and rises to G

 the chorus is somewhat complex...

 A-C-G-G-C-D-C

 and the "whoa-whoa" section is basically jumping back and forth twixt D and G

 That's it!!!  all you are missing is the C7-D7-G7-D7-G7 in the "whoa-whoa"
 part!!

 I am still working on this six string of mine to figure out that last part.
  Oh and the mother nature part.....I got it A-C7-G..... maybe it is just
 me.....thanks mucho!
