This my first time figuring out chords for a song. It sounds good to me, but I 
don't think it is entirely complete or correct. I'm hoping for feedback to help 
correct any errors.

C (x32010@1)    -       G (320003@1)          F (133211@1)I walk into a room just as cool as you please
C (x32010@1)    -     G (320003@1)                   F (133211@1) And to a man the fellas stand And fall down on their knees.
C (x32010@1)    -         G (320003@1)              F (133211@1)                F (133211@1)Then they swarm around me Like a hive of honey bees,
                    F (133211@1)  -     C (x32010@1)I say, "It's in the fire in my eyes,
    F (133211@1)   -     CThe (x32010@1)flash of my teeth,
    F (133211@1)   -     CThe (x32010@1)swing of my waist,
    F (133211@1)      
The joy in my feet."

CHORUS:
      C (x32010@1)   G (320003@1)          F (133211@1)    FI'm (133211@1)a woman  Phenomenal woman.

BRIDGE
           Bb (x1333x@1)        CIt's (x32010@1)in the arch of my back,
    Bb (x1333x@1)      CThe (x32010@1)sun of my smile,
    Bb (x1333x@1)       FThe (133211@1)ride of my breast,
