This is an old, old folk song made very popular on the banjo by Mr. Earl Scruggs. This version is similar to Earl's, but also adds a couple twists and turns to set it apart.

Is there a jam track for this at a slower tempo? 90 is still a bit quick for me.

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

You're not behind. Two weeks on a lesson like this is normal and healthy.
