That was really pretty! I've been playing/singing this song for a while, but I don't do it fingerpicked. I might have to give that a try. I also play it in C, and I think you're playing it in D (though I admit I'm not sure!).
Nice vocals too.

Excellent Dr! I really enjoyed that. Nice job on the vocals and the all-round feel of that song.

Is that MY guitar you're playing?? DC16-GTE? I saw it hanging on the wall in your Dave Matthews video as well..
A suggestion- I think it would be really worthwhile to learn the signature piano part in this song. You know the part I mean, right?
I don't know how hard it would be to learn it- but it would take it to the next level.
Having said that- the level this is at is super. REALLY enjoyed that, DR!!

I've always liked this EJ song. It captures the essence and mystique of the rock star image. Most people don't think of Elton's music as guitar music with the exception of Your Song and Daniel but I like how Bennie sounds on an acoustic. Hope you enjoy my version.
