Chords to a Kansas song off their self-titled debut album?

Question

Trust me, I have searched the internet. No luck.

It's the very last song, " Death of Mother Nature Suite".
At the very end of that song, when the acoustic guitar starts strumming that chord progression.

What are those chords?

Thanks, I very much appreciate any help.

Thanks to both of you guys.
Fonzie T, I always appreciate your advice of music, you know your stuff. You were correct of the chords, expect the B didn't sound quit right when I played it. I believe TM is correct, you go to the D twice. Of course thats in the key of E.

But, thanks to both of you guys Fonzie T and TM. You guys both rock. If I have any more questions I'll ask you guys, because you nailed this one.

TM, I just watched the video.
I noticed that Kerry Livgren is playing open chords. I guess he's in F#. The voicing of the chords sounds better to me in those open chords he's using. Thanks again to both you guys.

Check out this live vid:

At about 5:07, you can get a perty good visual of Kerry's chord fingering.
If you are playing a guitar that is tuned to A 440, you'll be able to play along with the video playing these chords.

/ F# - - - / - - - - /G# - - - / - - - -/B - - - / - - - - /D - - - / E - - - / D - - - / E (2)- - - /
repeat

To convert to the key of E:

/ E - - - / - - - - /F# - - - / - - - - /A - - - / - - - - /C - - - / D - - - / C - - - / D (2) - - - /
repeat


Edit:

Frankie,

Kerry is definitely using some open chording and possibly a special tuning for this song. You'll recall that in the early Kansas days, Kerry didn't have his acoustic readily available on a separate stand onstage as he did later after Leftoverture was released.

If you're interested in more obscure Kansas, let me know. You most likely know that Kerry has assembled a new band with original Kansas members called Protokaw. Kerry has been writing new stuff and re-working older vintage material.

Wow. Someone who knows obscure Kansas! Yay! I'll listen when I get home & get back to you.. (unless someone beats me to it)
