Song Help Request Today is Mine - Jerry Reed

Beautiful song! Really pretty chords/voicings used in it. I haven't got much time this morning, but here is a start:

Dadd9 / / / |Dadd9 / / / |Dadd9 / / / |Dadd9 / / / |
Dadd9 / / / |D7 / / / |Em7add4 / / / |Em7add4 / / / |

I'm learning it on a low G tuned uke and it sounds really nice. The picking pattern is pretty easy if you use four fingers (Thumb=G Index=C Middle=E Ring=A)
The pattern is:
|M-I-T-R-M-I-T-I| and it repeats for each chord above

The Voicings are
Dadd9 2200
D7 2020
Em7add4 0200

I'll add more as I can. If anyone else would like to chime in, or make corrections, feel free! :D
 
That is a great start, Maguwa--thank you! I didn't mention that this song was a favorite of my father who passed away a few years ago, so I have been wanting to learn it to honor his memory. I appreciate your help!
