Quite a lot of classic songs have stuff like this in them - the best example is the Hard Day's Night chord, which wasn't played how it sounds on a guitar at all, it's a guitar chord with a different bass note and a piano chord under it.

We've all done it: played a song for donkey's years and you never listen to the original any more. It's only when you have to listen to it again for some reason -- like a new member or a dep's coming and you want to check the arrangement -- that you suddenly notice that you've been playing it "wrong" for ages.
I.e. if they're cool then you just sort out what arrangement you want: do they change back to the original? Or do you change to their arrangement?
If you're going to call them on it as the noob then FFS make sure 100% that you are actually correct.
So, I'll yield to his format departures and nonstandard arrangements but he'll neverrrr tek mah Fdim !!!

We used to cover Ry Cooder’s ‘The Very Thing That Made You Rich’. Dave used to play the opening guitar - which sounds ‘loose’ on the recording - but which can be counted through perfectly. His version was simply not in time. The drummer demonstrated this by playing the original and counting it through in front of everyone.
These kind of behaviours ruthlessly expose someone's musical short-comings - and aren’t particularly ‘nice’. But what they do, is highlight the issue in a way that requires change.
I don’t think ‘most of the audience’ not noticing is a reason to condone doing it wrong. I know being in a band is a ‘team’ thing - but with that camaraderie comes personal responsibility. I’d expect everyone to want it to be right. I’d rather not be in a band than compromise on stuff like this....

Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Any punter who ‘gets’ music is likely think ‘Christ - that egotistical guitarist’s fucking loud!’ - rather than ‘that keyboard player’s playing the wrong chords!’ An own goal, potentially....

Thanks, I've always found that section of the song harmonically interesting in it's movement and it's something I see played different all the time across the different bands I play with
What I play is very similar but mines got the lower 5th in it but having seen your two examples without I think I prefer it without

Cut his car's brake cable. glue a massive picture of your own hand flipping him off onto the driver's airbag, compromising its effectiveness and making sure the last thing he sees before fiery death is you giving him the bird. Bonus points if you can hide a harmonica in G and a Harmonica in C in the air vents so in the crash, the rush of air through the system makes them sound.
