This is a basic to intermediate version of a Christmas classic in the key of G. We play the basic melody, and use the chord positions to add harmonies!

    Slowed the video to 50% and worked it a measure at a time. Two weeks in and it's coming. Patience is the lesson here as much as the notes.

    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

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

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