This is banjo master Jim Britton's arrangement of a classic hymn that works just PERFECTLY in C tuning! Let's get those 4th strings down a notch and head up the neck on this challenging piece!

    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?

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

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

    Answered over in the tab thread too, but short version: play what's comfortable, the tab is a map not a law.
