      yes, bar 17 is the start of the 12 bar progression so the 5 chord is in on the 9th bar from bar 17 (bar 25).

        What is the number on the metronome for lesson 4.Starting on bar 17 I count four beats to the measure and arrive at the C chord way ahead of you. When does the count begin?

          the count begins on bar 17. if you look at bar 16 you will see a double bar line, if you look at bar 28 you will see a double bar line. between these double bar lines is the 12 bar progression. Bar 9 of this progression is where the 5 chord happens. does this make sense now?

            I see the double bars, beginning and end and I well marked them. Beginning at bar 17 I try to stay with you by counting 4 beats to the measure but I always arrive at the 9th bar way ahead of you. I just don’t have the right cadence

              try focusing on the bass riff which jumps in 5ths and is 2 bars long then comes down a tone but is the same riff again for 2 bars.
