Additonal lyrics:
(in order of played)
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Imagine there's no heaven.
It's easy if you try.
No hell below us.
Above us only sky.
Imagine all the people living for today, ah.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Imagine there's no contries.
It isn't hard to do.
Nothing to kill or die for.
And no religion too.
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
You may say I'm a Dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope some day you'll join us.
And the world will live as one.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
Imagine no possessions.
I wonder if you can.
No need for greed or hunger.
A brotherhood of man.
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
*  I'll put a (b) for the barred F
** I won't put anything for the normal F

this tab is a little bit too complicated for me.

Dairybeat
The chords you stated in the verses are possible for a cover band, but John Lennon is playing: |C Cmaj7|F |, with the Cmaj7 on the 4th count of the measure.

Dairybeat is right, this tab isn't accurate at all, you've made things more complicated than they should be.
