I think part of it might be because I got smoked by a drunk driver back in 99 and my upper right bone compound fractured and literally came out of my arm, my arm was attached by tendons. So they put a big metal rod in there and a plate and some screws but the radial nerve was severely damaged. I had no movement in my right hand for over a year, had to wear a glove with elastics on the fingers to try and get them to move. I recovered but not fully so it makes it hard to reach some things on the fret board. I think if I work at it enough I can train my fingers to react better, kind of good therapy actually.

Here is a cheat to play some common chords all from one basic position, IIRC:
G (320033) C (X32033) A (X02233) D (XX0233)
You are only moving your two big fingers around.
And a kind of F (13X033) - Use your thumb for the 1.
Em (022033)
using these forms you got:
Small Town: G D C - capo 3rd fret
I Apologize: G D C D
I Will Dare: G A Em A
Atlantic City: Em G C G - capo 3rd fret
