    Ben, this one finally made the timing click for me. Been fighting it for a month. Thank you.

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

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

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

    Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.
