      Here’s the lyrics. Try singing it to the melody. I can’t sing well, but it’s fun and helps you know where the song’s going.

        Your tone and tuning is really good!

        I would work on playing at a steady tempo. Play each quarter with a metronome. Loop at different speeds. Nothing too fast. Just go for steadiness. Eventually play the whole tune with a metronome.

        Let me know how it goes: [email protected]
