    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.

    Welcome aboard — you picked a good one to start on.

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

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

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

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