They tend to do this for the 1st while John. But with continued practice they basically sort themselves out.

Best piece of advice I ve seen is take your time and get the shape down and focus on keeping it clean. Then, start working on tempo. So, for me, it basically goes like this:

Chord shape and notes clean, then as I try to make the chord transition at tempo it all falls apart but does come together with practice.

Eventually I can play the song.

Good luck
