Hmm..maybe try another, easier instrument? Maybe a keyboard, where it's easier to hit the notes. There is one I see advertised online that is a flexible strip you can lay on a table and it plays like a piano.

You can get them in all sizes, and they are on Amazon for $35.

Understand. Played rythem guitar since that time, too. Find a good lead and you'll sound fine. And play punk or folk country and no one will notice. Best wishes my friend.

You can read tabs. Easier to learn. The only chord I know is a power E. I don't know much about the music theory, but I'd play for 8 hours a day! I have a group on here called "GUITARS ONLY". I have a lot of master classes on there. If I can't help, someone will.

You need to practice until your fingers can find them without you actually thinking about them - like walking . When you were a baby and just learning to walk , there was a lot to learn . Figuring out the mechanics involved - get your balance , shift all of your weight to one foot , lift the other foot up and move it forward , put that foot down , shift your weight to that one , then lift the other foot , while maintaining your balance . Now you not only don't think about any of these , in all likelyhood , you don't even think about how to get to where you're going . Practice until your fingers dance over the cords , without thinking about it .

I think you can do anything you set your mind to. If you know all the chords, pick another song and practice.
