I Can't play it myself! I'd say in general, if you're having problems with a piece it's really helpful to slow it down until you can play it through. Keep going slower until you can get all the way through it. Avoid playing along with a recording if you're making mistkes. If you keep making the same errors, you're actually LEARNING the errors. Eeep!
Thank goodness I found trying to learn the uke by myself very hard. Strumming was the problem for me. Middle aged and never played an instrument before. What was I thinking. I bought a Sanchez accoustic/electric. Can't wait till your next lesson.
Great work on this one Benny. Cool song too. Thanks!
