Great simple song, just two chords all the way through.
I tried to map out the timing of the chords as accurately as possible, the rhythm gets a 
little tricky.
The end bit I'm not 100% on, it could just follow the same chord changes as the rest of 
the song.
Try it out, it's up to you.
[Chorus]
DHey mami, I know what you Bmwant, mami
