The "lord we don't need another mountain" part is totally chorded in the wrong key. It should start with Am7. See Andrew Rogers chart also listed on this site.

The verse chords seem very wrong. Also the last chorus chords are completely different than the first ones and don't make any sense to me

Capo @1 is correct, for the Jackie DeShannon version. This is kinds incomplate, but here's what I have so far: Chorus: Em7 Am7 x2, F6 (xx3231) G6 F6/G, Em7 Am7 x2, F E7s4(000200) E7; Verses: Am9 (or Am7)... Gm7 C7 Fj9(102010)(or Fj7) F6, Gm7 C7 Fj7 Am7 D7 F/G(303011); Chorus; V2... F/G D#m7 (=key change) Chorus 3: Fm7 A#m7(x13121) x2, F#6 G#6 F#6/G# … etc.
