I have struggled with this since I started playing. I'm at the point now that I can pick one out if it is really obvious.
Give this vid a look. It gives some good strums to start with. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T4_9Bj6sYE
Also, if you look on youtube for a lesson of the song you want to learn you are bound to come across one that offers up a strum pattern for it.
That list excludes Sonny Terry,Brownie Magee,Lightnin Hopkins,Long gone miles if they aint blues I dont know what is.
I had the pleasure of meeting Long gone Miles in Venice Califorina along with Sonny Terry,Brownie Mcgee, Lightnin Hopkins and the Chambers Bros.I jammed at few parties and got to hang out with these blues legends it was a very enlightining time in my life. this is (long gone miles) singing some blues. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sgq_iXckVnY
one other thing I would like to mention,when I was in my early twenties I played in a few strip clubs with a guy on a hammond B3 and a drummer got my education early
The link I posted was for Delta Blues. If you do a search you can find who you're looking for. Here's a list for Best Blues artists of all time.

All your guys are on this one. I'll be going thru this list at some point.
I found this recently and can't get enough of it. I think I'm only on number 14. The awesomeness of the guys on this list is unmeasurable. There aren't any links to click so I've just been looking them up on Youtube. Great stuff!!!!!

The website itself is sorta cool. There is a list for any and everything.
Happy new guitar day!!!! You are required to post pics when you obtain a new axe.
Insert rimshot here.
WOW!!! I think there is a reason it nobody remembered it. Let's leave that back in the 50's where it belongs.
Z...if you dont like being called "sir" would you prefer "miss"?
NB one slip of that sword and it wont be the title under your arm
I've been called worse. For me, sir ranks right up there with guy.
So I do get an award for my 1000th, a new title. I'm liking it Tops. If I think of another I'll hit you up.

In four dimensional Einstein space, sure. But in Calabi–Yau space, there is a universe where that song is about messing with Superman, so, you know, theoretically I was right.
I rest my case!!!!!
I'm not from England and I don't like being called Sir. So I'll be happy with just the title stuck under my name.
This is one crazy looking guitar!!!
Jerome can't be bothered with song titles. He's too busy trying to prove that matter is made up of musical notes and how music theory is way better than the theory of relativity.
Thanks Roger!!! Do I get some sort of prize or award for this?
Hard to believe there are only 25 Honoured members. Why is it spelled like that anyway?

+1 on that advice.
And CONGRATS to zguitar on becoming the forum's newest "Honored Member" (1000 posts).
WOW, no way! I didn't even notice it. Thanks 'Nom!
Bad thing is that the guitar you have now will never sound as good as the one you want. You will always find something wrong with it because you're comparing it to something that you perceive as new and better. Play what you got and save up for the one you want.
Hi Tina, welcome to Chordie.
I found this vid on Youtube:

Look in the description under the vid and it shows the chords.
Found this too:
Tickets went on sale today. VIP 3 day passes sold out already. Man I wish I could have bought one.
So sorry to hear about your wife Butch. Glad things are looking up. Get in contact with JoeyJoeyJoey, he's looking to unload a couple guitars.
Oh how I wish it was mine!!! It was posted on another forum having to do with refinishing. It was a Precisionguitarkits.com kit. I'm thinking that is my dream guitar right there.
Here's a link to the thread if you're interested:

G.A.S. is strong with you.
Save your pennies!!!!!!
I like the more simple look. Less is more. I don't like lots of fancy things on my guitars.
This axe is awesome and completely plain. No inlays, binding, or pickguard. I love it!
If you're worried about scratches you can get a clear static cling pick guard.

Amazing detail in these pics that are fitted together to give a 360 of London.

Like Russell said, find something that inspires you. It sounds more like you're in a rut than a plateau. If you're feeling like you're not progressing then you need to take a step back and examine what you know and what you want to learn next. Before proceeding, make sure you know what you know VERY well. A better foundation makes for better progress. Pick your next goal and get after it. I think everyone here will agree that even if you think you're not getting better you really are.
If you're at a plateau, then you have progressed enough with the basics that now you need to look for challenges. Like the others said, pick something completely diff than what you are doing now. Expand your horizons.
Stick with it and don't get down on yourself.
Just be glad it was the dull side that bit you. The business side could have put you out for a long time.
Found this one earlier in the week while looking for music to put on my phone. Awesome stuff.
