Before I learned enough to actually hear and understand what someone was playing on a record. Also before youtube where you could see where someone was placing there hands on the fretboard of a guitar, I use to think it was me that was screwing up because it did not sound correct. Very frustrating.

Now that I know a little more I have come to understand that most of these "chords and lyrics" posted on the internet are just inaccurate.

I wanted to learn Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton note for note, lick for lick. Where the internet "chord" said D it was actually Asus4. A typical misrepestation of the song. Then some of the other sites had the song in another key.

Makes me wonder what else I learned off the internet that was just plane wrong.

I may not want to play some cover tune note for note but I think it is important to learn it note for note before I go screwing around with a new arrangement.

Well...what do you think?
