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.

That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

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.

Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.
