Pete makes a good point. I do this all of the time learning a song with vocals.
1st it helps you know where the chord changes are when singing. If you are having timing problems, like I did for years, I finally gave in an started practicing with a metronome. The first few sessions really showed me how weak I was and at times still am, either rushing the timing or being to slow or putting chord changes in the wrong location. It helped my singing to. When to pause, when to stretch out a word, etc.
You can slow down Tony’s video lessons which I always do before actually practicing Thursday and Friday chord reviews. I just put the video on half speed Watch his strumming patterns, put it on pause and Tapping my foot practice what he just did.
Put your ego in your back pocket and actually, slowly practice what your are viewing.
I break my actual practice times, Not the video portion but my actual time I have a guitar in my hand down to 20 minutes or less depending how close I am coming to a good replica of the lesson. I usually do the lesson 3 times a day and improve with each session but the metronome is almost always being used.
You sound like me, have a good idea of all of the pieces needed to pick and grin, just need help in where to do what.
