I came up with a guitar part, but it sounds very familiar to me. However, I can't place it. Did I just rip someone off or does it just have that "vibe?" Can anyone tell me if this is the same riff from some other song? click my Soundcloud link below to listen. http://snd.sc/OJ3PWo Thanks!

Those chords appear in a LOT of songs, I wouldn't worry about it.

Wrong answer James, you remember we did that last year now we could claim a few million bucks in copyright fees. 
 
 
 
 
Just kidding Lateaf, as James says common enough chords I would not worry about.

yep don't sweat it. most of John Lennon's songs can be traced back to "Three Blind Mice".  AC/DC produced a dozen albums with the same three chords.  cool track.

Thanks guys. I've been trying to incorporate more Rock guitar into some of my songs. However, I don't play guitar. So, I've been using Virtual Guitarist 2 with decent results.
