Question Uncle John's Band - scale(s) for the riffs

I know the key of the song is G, but what scales other than G major are workable for this song? Our other guitarist will do the rhythm so I've been asked to learn the lead fills. I first tried mixolydian but couldn't tell if that was correct. I do know that the Dm pentatonic over ending works well but can't find much discussion for the fills during the song. Suggestions welcome. Thanks!
