nayrneleh had this song pretty much correct. I'm just kinda fixing it up with the weird
chords that are in it. I'm almost positive this is 100% correct, otherwise it's pretty dang close. Also, I 
don't have time to figure out what these chords are so I'm just gonna give them numbers or 
something. I hope it all makes sense. Thanks
