I will one thing though my hand is sore now ..
But it was worth the effort

I've never heard you play before Trevor, but your strumming is really smooth. Flawless. Nice job.

Nice warm tune. Seems your getting on the mend. 
Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

Hi Hilch,
Nice job strumming. I believe your chords were G A G F A G F . Your first verse was perfect...I believe its
G ^v^v^v (down up strums) 4 times
A ^v^v^v (down up strums) 2 times
G ^v^v^v (down up strums) 2 times
F ^v^v^v (down up strums) 1 time
A ^v^v^v (down up strums) 1 time
G ^v^v^v (down up strums) 1 time
F ^v^v^v (down up strums) 1 time
That set should carry thru the song, but on your second verse(set) you strummed the 1st G 1time too many...A;G;F;A;were good 2nd G you hit 2times too many last F was good.
The third verse you strum G 2 times too many the rest was good.
The last verse I think you missed a chord.
Any way If you write down on a piece of paper the chords and how many times you should strum them it will help you keep the flow.  Your doing great so keep it up...I hear a big difference in your playing already. You'll be jamming real soon

Wow Slick Cat ..
I really do have to be careful now , you picked my mistakes up really well , But you did get something wrong the chords ...
I cheated as I can't play F yet , so I put a capo on the 2nd fret and played D for 4 measures then G for 2 measures D for 2 measures then A for 1 measure then back to D ...
Cappo would have put you off a little in picking the chords but hey I should have mentioned that at the start ...
But thank you for listening so carefully , that tells me it was sort of kinda like music ..
I actually got lost a little as my hand started aching { no excuse though }
Thank you
Appreciate the feed back

You've effectively transposed it to a I, IV, V of E, A and B Hilch, but that strumming and the chord changes are sounding pretty cool apart from that teensy-weensy little counting error.

Hilch.....you got me on the capo  The way I determined the chords you were playing was by picking the root notes on my standard tuned guitar that match the tone you had (by ear) then I wrote down the chords I thought you were playing. Still you did a great job
