    Yeah, no problem, tabs will do? These are 3 three compositions by the way.

    C5(9) G5(9) E5(9,13)
    E|-----|-----|-----|
    B|-----|-----|-----|
    G|--7--|-----|--6--|
    D|--5--|--7--|--4--| A bit streched, but it's the same pattern reapeated.
    A|--3--|--5--|--2--|
    E|-----|--3--|--0--|


    Am Gsus4 Gmaj Fmaj Fmaj7etc.
    E|--5--|--3--|--3--|--1--|--0--
    B|--5--|--3--|--3--|--1--|--0--
    G|--5--|--5--|--4--|--2--|--0--
    D|--7--|--5--|--5--|--3--|--3-- it's just open strings actually
    A|--7--|--5--|--5--|--3--|--3--
    E|--5--|--3--|--3--|--1--|--1--

    Am6 Fdom9
    E|-----|-----|--

    here's a long solemn circle of minors

    Gm (g-d-Bb)
    Dm (f-d-a)
    Am
    Em
    Dm
    Gm(flat5) (Bb-g-c#)
    Cm (Eb-g-c)
    Gm
    Cm ( c-g-Eb)
    Gm (Bb-g-d)
    Dm
    Am
    Em
    Dm
    Gm (Bb-g-d)
    Am7
    Dm


    so this song goes on and on , and when the time comes you want to resolve it - the actual tonal center of it is D minor - it spirals to there .
    it will spin in all time .

    ya! i took this one home and tried it out . it sounds medieval - black death . so i tuned the low E to D (dropped D tuning) and transposed our progression into Dm .

    Dm F A Gm F Dm

    then i could order the bass line tones like this :

    d f a Bb f d

    and play the chords as simple triads with essentially droning high and mid tones


    Dm F ..A .....Gm...F ....... Dm

    a ..a ..a .....a g ..a g a g...a
    d ..d ..e .....d .....d ....c....d
    d ..f ...a .....Bb .....f .........d


    thanks for the fun

    That's odd man, I just wrote a new progression that's pretty much that...

    Only I play it | G |Am | F | C |...then the bridge is: (4/4) |C-->Cmaj7| G | |Emaj7-->E| Am |

    Oh, I'm using a kapo on the 3rd fret by the way...and in between the bridge and main progression I finger pick on high e/b.

    (Pick G, B, C, E (15th fret)) ---hammer on b 3rd fret (D), then hammer on G (on high e)...play open high e then slide into a hammer on/pull off B and C as well.

    C-E7-Am-F-F-Fm-C-G7

    Keep it simple, rockin' it old school, strum it with all your soul, and sing it hard.

    I like that man....I was messing around with it and threw in a bridge between 3 separate full measures of that.

    Try going from that G7 to a Am to an F then to a drawn out C to end it.

    Came up with a little something last night....

    D-Dmaj7-D7-D-Dmaj7-D7-G

    I also like too add this in after or before depending on how I feel:

    D-Dmaj7-D7-Asus4(add9)-Am11

    (Try finger picking the Asus4(add9) and Am11. Also try to slide from the Am11 to the Asus4(add9).

    Bridge:
    Em-A-D
    Em-A-D-D7-Em-A (Play much slower here) D-D/C#-D/B-D/A-G-Asus4

    Rinse and repeat main progression.
