D              A             Bm    A  F#m  G
Old oaks stand tall, Annie, seen the world grow small, Annie
D             A            G    G/F# G/E D
But when they fall, Annie, where will we be?
D          A           Bm  A       F#m G
Winter has come, Annie, no strength in the sun, Annie

And when it's gone, Annie, where shall we be?

Late to this (2025!). Nice tab and certainly not "All wrong", though that commenter is right that the A Bm A F#m *A* G which you have only in the Intro is the same structure as the verse (i.e. don't drop the third A chord). Also, for newbies, in part 2 of the verse, don't strum the G/F# or G/E chords--just do a descending bass run on the E string (strum G chord, then walk down to B then E, then strum D chord).
