Formal Sheet music can be very confusing, as it uses certain symbols and indications that are meant to give you info about how to proceed through the song - and yet, we are often not fully taught how to interpret these symbols. The song moves along quickly, while we are still trying to figure out how to follow the music.

my best advice would be to print the LYRIC sheet with the chords, and make a note to yourself as you compare it to the video - noting any spots that require a litttle special attention from you. The lyric sheet with chords offers you the basic information you need to get through the song, without a lot of extra markings to interpret and follow.

i hope this helps.
