This is my first original song... jamming along on a backing track that I found on YouTube. Please keep in mind that I've only been playing guitar for 5 months and I'm not taking any lessons...

Feedback, constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!

That's really good. You only missed a couple of notes, go back and find them, it's no biggie, it is highly commendable! :D

Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Hey, thanks! Yes, I know I missed a few, what I did was basically rolled the backing track and played along... I'm not that familiar with all the notes and where I should put my fingers in order for it to sound right and somtimes I hesitate... and that's pretty much what happend... some people asked me if the guitar is in tune... what do you think? Just for the record, the guitar is in fact in tune ... but I think I need to put some new strings on it :D I also made a cover for the song from Simple Plan - Shut Up... if you'd like to hear it I will post it on youtube, it came out pretty nice to be honest, it kind of exceeded my expectations :)
