sOcks, you might practice some simple alternate thumb picking patterns to get those down. I would not divide your thinking
into melody, harmony, and bass line as far as technically learning to play something (you'll be lost). Save a bit of that for
expressing yourself musically more and more as you learn a piece (which may involve which notes to accent, play louder,
where to use timing variations, where to change the tone, etc.).

Woods hands pick by eye and ear
Made to one with pride and love
To be that we hold so dear
