Everything was pretty close until you modulated to F and F#. There's one F# chord in the verse part.(ie):
E F# B
With an apple, he was tempted and deceived
You just need to work on transposing keys. I know the record modulates keys, but when Stonewall Jackson plays live,he just stays in the key of E.
Watch his hands on YouTube video.Not bad for first try.Good luck!
