    My fingers know it but my brain doesn't yet — I can't play it without the tab in front of me. How do you all commit these to memory?

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

    Glad it clicked! That timing is the whole point of this lesson, so if that landed you got what you came for.

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.
