This is such an awesome story Jeff!! From the hearts and mouths of babies, huh? BTW, the babe is the grandson. Not that you aren’t too, just not my call – lol.

Congrats on completing 30 days to play! I think that when I look back on that, I did the best job I could do at the time and mine wasn’t very pretty either or it’s still not that pretty but a long time ago I made the decision that I was gonna put out there the good the bad and the ugly because I was simply gonna have fun. This is something I wanted to do for a long time and I have had a lot of fun and I’m getting better but it’s not great and that’s OK. Just always remember that things will get better over time and what you do today is the best you have. Look forward to seeing you around.

Welcome back @JoeC66 . I’m sorry to hear you had to have surgery, especially right after signing up. Glad you made it back. That’s the hard part! Welcome to TAC, and let us know if you have any questions.

Hi @GaryRKarr Welcome to the TAC community. Your question comes up frequently.
TAC teaches a player foundational skills that can then be applied when playing songs. Unfortunately TAC does not teach full songs. The purpose of TAC is to take the foundational skills and have the capability of using them when playing songs. That said, there are several things you can do.
The prior TAC website had a song vault where a member that opted for access, and paid for it had access to a linrary of fingerpicking and flatpicking song lessons. These were all bluegrass type songs, but it was a great place to learn and feel accomplishmemts. When TAC converted to the website and reorganized, they disbanded the song vault, but they made it available on its own website. These site has since been shared with just about anyone who wants access to it. I was a paying member and wasn’t too thrilled this happened, but I’ve since changed my stance and openly share it. Here is the link to the Song Vault. https://hub-lkx8655w8n.membership.io/
Many use Ultimate-guitar.com to access chord and tab sheets. If you listen to. Song and vocals, you can basically strum any song and sing it. You just need the chords, which this site provides, and you do not have to pay to access them.
There are many sites that offer up great lessons. I’ll message some to you. Out of courtesy to TAC, I won’t list them here.
YouTube has some good lessons. I’ll send a few to you.
You can Google free online acoustic song guitar lessons.

Hi @michaelmjdverizon-net welcome to the TAC community. I’m sorry you had difficulty knowing where to go. As you did here, you can always reach out to the community for guidance, and you can reach out through the customer service help button at the bottom the support button and start a chat, and Victoria will get back with you fairly fast.
There are two great places to start. The first is on the left with the icon that looks like a map, which is a Quickstart guide. The other is in the Skills courses, the icon the left which kinda looks like a Flip chart thing. You’ll find <b style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>Learn the Basics Courses, which is a great road map. It covers all the basics of the program. It should guide you from the 30 days to play to the next six chords to the five day challenge which does cover the five different areas that you mentioned and once you’ve got through the basics then the next step would be to start the daily challenges and that’s where you’re gonna see those five areas covered every week, it follows the same pattern.
