You're absolutely right. Roger. I was addressing a general approach to most any song.
I do some recitations that involve putting the guitar line on "automatic" to free up the vocal line to speak in rhythms not in sync with the music.
Example - Dr. John's "How Come My Dog Don't Bark When YOU Come 'Round".
This means drilling the guitar line enough times to have it become second nature.

The Eagles looked so sharp against Dallas they are due to let down in this next non-division game. I'm inclined to bet on the Bears.

LSU wins 9-6 but Bama's cheerleaders and band majorettes were hotter than LSU's hotties by a mile.

If you like puns (and I really really do) here are some favorites:

Lexiphiles

(i.e., "lovers of words") - you know. . . like, you can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish. . . or, I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. . . then it hit me. . . etc.). Well, here are some for you to enjoy. . .

To write with a broken pencil is . . . pointless.

When fish are in schools they sometimes . . . take debate.

A thief who stole a calendar . . . got twelve months.

When the smog lifts in Los Angeles , . . . U.C.L.A.

The professor discovered that her theory of earthquakes . . . was on shaky ground.

The batteries were given out . . . free of charge.

A dentist and a manicurist married. .. . . They fought tooth and nail.

A will is a . . . dead giveaway.

If you don't pay your exorcist . . . you can get repossessed.

With her marriage, she got a new name . .. . and a dress.

Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft and I'll show you . . . A-flat miner.

You are stuck with your debt if . . . you can't budge it.

Local Area Network in Australia : . . . The LAN down under.

A boiled egg is . . . hard to beat.

When you've seen one shopping center . . . you've seen a mall.

Police were called to a day care where a three-year-old was . . . resisting a rest.

Did you hear about the fellow whose whole left side was cut off? . . . He's all right now.

If you take a laptop computer for a run you could . . .. jog your memory.

A bicycle can't stand alone; . . . it is two tired.

In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, . . . it's your Count that votes.

When a clock is hungry . . .. it goes back four seconds

The guy who fell onto an upholstery machine . . . was fully recovered.

He had a photographic memory . . . which was never developed.

Those who get too big for their britches will be . .. . exposed in the end.

When she saw her first strands of gray hair, . . . she thought she'd dye.

Acupuncture: . . . a jab well done.

Football almost qualifies as a religion here in Alabama. Some folks around here take it so seriously they have themselves buried in Alabama or Auburn caskets with Alabama or Auburn headstones.
I played at several golf banquets where fans pay ten grand apiece to golf, eat and have pictures taken with heroes like Joe Namath, Bart Starr and Archie Manning.
This game may be a case of the irresistible force vs the immovable object. Don't know who's gonna win but we're gonna hear the hitting a block from the stadium.
Good on ya chordians,
