I need help with writing a blues song for school help me please I'm desperate?
i need a blues song for a class for the 7th grade and it needs to be 12 measures help me please!!!!!! Lyrics or actual chords, notes, etc?If it's lyrics, just talk about how your wife left you for another man, or how you did something wrong to lose your girl, or about something else vaguely related to girls and not getting them.
If it's chords, you'll want to go with what's called 12-bar-blues. There are 12 measures in a traditional blues hook, and they use the I, IV, and V chords of a key. For instance, C, F, and G. The format is: I, I, I, I, IV, IV, I, I, V, IV, I, turnaround. The turnaround is a short lick or musical phrase that either takes the song into the next verse or ends it, depending on what you're going for.
l A7 l A7 l A7 l A7 l
l D7 l D7 l A7 l A7 l
l E7 l D7 l A7 l E7 l (these last 4 are the turnaround)
Other turnarounds
l F#7 l B7 l E7 l A7 l
l E7 l D7 l A7 l A7 l
