Zhort & Zlow Fingerz

Zo I ventured in the very depthz of the dungeon known az our garage to look for a Zatraini tab book so I could once again, for about the hundreth time in my life, learn Zatch'z accouztic "Tearz In the Rain" inztrumental. Of courze whilzt venturing amidzt the myriad of boxez I could not find the dezired book. Zo I ventured out of the dungeon to the net of the inter & found a tab to try. And after a few hourz I can play through it zort of ok. Hopefully I won't forget it again. And once again I realized that my fingerz are shorter than Joe'z. Zigh. I've alwayz had to & once again have had to play the zong with the B ztring tuned down a half step. 'Tiz good to be dinking around with thingz for the fun of it. Perhapz I'll ztare at Ed & otherz playing Panama to try & learn it better than the cheezy way I uzed to play it in high school. I won't try the zolo though. Too many little black dotz for theze "zhort & zlow" fingerz. Onward to play Znowboarding on XBox with Caleb.

Until later, turn it up to 11.

My problem while learning guitar was attempting any Beatles song. Most 60's groups used simple major and minor chords. Not John and Paul. They used every unnatural, hard-to-decipher, harder-to-play chord known to musicdom, and totally unknown to me. I even looked at published Beatles music and couldn't figure it out. I guess I'm a "Pipeline" kind of guy.
