Close your eyes

There's this version of Wildwood Flower that I've been playing for a long time. Over the last few months, it seems to have gotten a little rockier. Moreover, I've been finding that the harder I work at trying to get it back to something smoother, it just stays rocky and clumsy.

I noticed the other day that when I closed my eyes and stopped looking so closely at where my fingers were going that it got a lot smoother.
