I am learning "Simple Man" by Lynard Skynard. I have it down - almost note for note, there are a few areas I need to work on but overall I could get way with playing this in front of people. Anyhoo - I found a drumless track of the song on yt:

I was practicing with Lynard Skynard but was having some tempo issues. I decided to set my click at 121 (the bpm that is on the sheet music I found at onlinedrummer) and see if helped me. Far from it - some of the song is at 121 but other parts I swear speed up and slow down - but just by a tad - hardly discernible to ear of the newbie but it comes out pretty clear when I have the click on. I am pretty sure I am starting my click on time - there is a count in at the start of the drumless track. Am I off or does the song indeed speed up and slow down? If it does vary in tempo - WHY???? And do other bands do that?
