As someone currently going through the pains of teaching myself guitar as well, I can completely sympathize with what you're going through. Except that I've been at it longer with less perseverance and less progress than you, and have to date performed precisely one song, because some friends that were singing at an event we were running needed me to... And then the guitar mic at the performance was way down, so on the recording yu can see. Me but can't hear a damned thing. Win? Fail? I don't know.

In either case, I love your choice of song, and for what it's worth, I've listened to it and decided in the past that while it would be a great song to learn, it's harder than I want to start off with. So, way to go with picking an awesome not-tremendously-easy song.

Context may amuse you. I already play and perform on: violin (classical and Irish fiddle), viola, (and only just now, typing this, did I realize how much that looks like 'voilá'!), mandolin, lap/mountain dulcimer, piano, bodhran, doumbek, djembe, bones (Irish version of castanets), nose flute (yes, really) and jaw harp. So, music and I have a very good relationship, and I still find making my fingers do what they need to on guitar to be rather awkward and unnatural.
