I have a memory like a sieve. For certain things. Unfortunately lyrics are one of those things....now chords are not. I doubt if I've played a wrong chord to a song in twenty years, but I've butchered soooo many lyrics in that time, it drives me to distraction.

I wouldn't worry too much about the "finger in the ear" types Unicorn. Try your best to learn the lyric, but if you need help...use a sheet. It's not like we're Nuclear Physicists or something.

Cheers

P.S. Kendall was one of the very best guitarists I met last year. Why? Because he plays top notch rhythm guitar, his timing is impeccable, and he and the instrument are one. I hate complex playing...simply for it's own sake.
