I wrote a pretty song using the key of C and learned "Bye Bye Miss American Pie" acousticly by Don McLean. Seems i've hit a dead end and a rode block; A rock and hard place. I can't seem to make anything these past couple days. I think I have neough songs for now, but to help others out and a lot of people in general, anyone know any good ones? I'll post this on the beginners forum as well.

folsom prison blues johnny cash simply E A B7

Wow that sounds pretty good anyway you play it and it's that simple. Hmm how did I miss that?

there are many progressions that sound very good.....Em D Am C....G C D...Bm A G...A D E...ro some jazz stuff here...A7 D7 G7  so many possibilities if you want to get into some more complex stuff... Em D#aug Bm Am Adim.......yeah thats from one of my songs...great for neoclassical style soloing....

Haha what the heck is that?!

I have also found out through looking up the tabs for some of my favorite songs
that it has more to do with how you strum then the actual chords

check out a song by flight of the concords called if your into it

2 chords C and A and a awesome strumming pattern
and really funny lyrics and back up vocals

sorry for throwing those crazy ones in there lol but heres a nother nice one lends itelsef towards Jazz....

Lol my high E string broke and i don't have time to go to guitar center, so i can't play any 7ths using conventional means; I'll have to use inversions.
