Question Does This Look Right?

I'm working on "House At Pooh Corner". I am trying to find a way to sing it in my range without having to capo up to the 7th fret and using the chord forms of... D... Em... etc...

I figured out the chord forms... A... Bm... C#m... etc... sound right, but I'm not good at transposing so any help would be appreciated.

Here is what sounds right (to me)...

A Bm C#m F#m
christopher robin and i walked along
D E A
under branches lit up by the moon
A Bm C#m F#m
posing our questions to owl and eyor
D E A
as our days disappeared all too soon
F#m C#m
but i wandered much further today than i should
D E
and i cant seem to find my way back to the wood

~chorus~

A D E
so help me if you can i've got to get
A D E
back to the house at pooh corner by one
A D E
you'd be surprised there's so much to be done
C#m F#m
count all the bees in the hive
C#m F#m
chase all the clouds from the sky
D E F#m G
back to the days of christopher robin and pooh
E...

~end chorus~

A Bm C#m F#m
whinnie the pooh does'nt know what to do
D E A
got a honey jar stuck on his nose
A Bm C#m F#m
he came to me asking help and advice
D E A
but from here no one knows where he goes
F#m C#m
so i sent him to ask of the owl if he's there
D E
how to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

~chorus~

A D E
so help me if you can i've got to get
A D E
back to the house at pooh corner by one
A D E
you'd be surprised there's so much to be done
C#m F#m
count all the bees in the hive
C#m F#m
chase all the clouds from the sky
D E F#m
back to the days of christopher robin
D E F#m
back to the days of christopher robin
D E F#m
back to the days of pooh
D E F#m
oh oh oh oh oh
D E A
oh oh oh oh oh

~end chorus~

Thanks in advance.
