I would say to not to try and run before you can walk. You should start off with easy folk/pop song melodies maybe first and work your way up. E mail me if you would like any book links to good teaching aids.

Cheers

Why not just use the tabs already done for Laughing Gas and then work out the differences between the RR years CD version and the video version?

I agree with Matt, learning by ear is something you should work on with simpler songs first.

It's easier to start with jazz and other forms of music with no distortion.

When trying to figure out harmony, start with quality of the chord (major, minor, etc.), then listen to the bass note. (If you figure out the key first, you'll have an easier time figuring out the chords if you know how chord function sounds: the I sounds different than the IV, etc.)

When trying to figure out melody, it helps to hum it.

When trying to figure out a note in general, listen to it, then match it by sliding up to it on the guitar if you have trouble.
