there is more then just adding the notes to the chords you have to also consider rests and key signatures for example in the key of G you would place a # sign on the top line and you must also indicate the time signature 4/4  3/4 not to mention codas notating music requires more then just chords for example a minor chord has a b3rd (flat third) so keep this in mind  

Pete and dino make a good point if the strings are not wound around the pegs correct they will slip and if the tuning pegs are loose the same thing could happen I agree with putting a new set on and cut the string about an inch past the post its going too then put the string thru the hole about a half inch and make a bend in the opposite direction you wind it to tighten them keep the wind below the bend with some tension till it tightens up enough to let go this will help with them slipping after they stretch out a little

I do play harmonica and its not uncommon to bend notes when you breath in you can lower notes a half step but you cannot raise them without a chromatic harp and the button on the end.

It depends on what your trying to express musically if your playing death metal by all means turn the guitar all the way and crank the amp till the speakers rattle.Music is an expression of your emotions sometimes they are quiet and subdued other times they are uplifting and happy to be a good musician you have to control the volume not only with the volume knobs but with your pick this is why in sheet music they have crescendos and decrescendos and words in Italian like forte(loud) mezzo forte(medium) and pianimisio(quiet) and the same reason they have three pedals on a piano one to dampen one to sustain and one to sustain briefly.A good rule is if your singing don't drown out your vocal because your selling the lyrics and your voice not how loud your guitar can be if your playing with other musicians blend in once you master control over the volume you are playing at you will find much more enjoyment in music.

I seen him on David Letterman's show he still has it as far as comparisons with Springsteen I don't think you can they are totally different I liked the older songs from Fogerty but his new ones are just as good and he has surrounded himself with some very talented musicians as it should be

This song's progression is a standard do wop G Em C D on the verses each chord is 4 beats (1bar) but on the bridge its 8 beats(2bars) you can use a down strum for each beat to keep your time better you can also substitute a Am for the C because it is the relative minor of the chord

That's what I paid for it at a music store it was in tough shape needing major surgery the strings were over 1/4 inch off the fretboard the front pickup was dead and the wiring was shorting out the only way to lower the strings was to remove 1/4 " of wood around the bridge and crank the neck screw to straighten out the bow.I replaced the pickups and installed a new wiring harness Zurf sent me a couple sets of light gauge bass stings and that helped out quite a bit it frets really nice I still need to find the other knob for the tone control its around somewhere
