It's pretty accurate, but I'd suggest some tweaks: * During the verse, [G] sounds better than [Gm], imo. * In "you haven't seen my man", [Bb A Bb A] also sound better than [C Bb Dm C] * I'm not 100% sure, but I think on the second "Bonnie/money on the side"s, it's an [Am] instead of an [F] * "Watch what you say to me": it's [Cm], not [Bb]; of that I'm sure. And the other chords are not there; only [F] and [Cm] until the last "I'm on fire", where you noted correctly, [Dm C]. * The last "I'm a sad/birl girl"s, the chords follow the chorus pattern: [Bb Am Gm F], and the song finishes in [Dm], as it's also ok. Sorry if I sound cocky, it's just because I spent the whole day on this song, haha. Cheers!

kinda late here oops. but your original Bb and F chords in "Bonnie on the side" and "money on the side" were correct.
