    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?

    Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

    Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

    Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.
