When you are playing the melody notes, it can be very difficult to work out which fingers to use for each note. Often you can look at the chord above the part and see that the notes of the melody are actually part of that chord. Forming the chord first is a good way to see which fingers to use. Have I confused you yet? Give it a try ... it may help you to move quicker between your melody notes. If you can get someone else to accompany you, get them to strum the chords while you pick the melody.
