lol seems like every topic you post on ends up being a two mile long debate board jerome.... not complaining though
  Not sure what pattern Jazz would use, but the circle of fifths my dad taught says this song would be

1                               2            1
the hand of death is drawing closer
                                          3
soon i must go to that far shore

the pattern is for the key of G

1=g
2=c
3=d
4=a
5=e and so on and so forth

or for another example in the key of A, a would be one, d would be two, e would be three, b would be four, Gb is five....

but yeah you're right using the number would probly work better.

Well you have to keep in mind that Hank learned to play from an old blues guitarists named Rufus Payne (hank called him Tee Tot). There wasn't a huge difference between the two, (they both came from the same place really...) except for the race of the singer. When early music began to be marketed black singers went under 'blues' and white singers went under 'hillbilly music' or something similar.

i have a george Les pickup which is a detachable humbucker, and when i hook it to my big amp it sounds arright

Hey dude srry if u felt left out.... lets see, Ernest Tubb is the man dude, if i had to pick a fav. from that era and there were no Hank Sr. it's probly be him. And the possum is (as Hank Jr. affectionately referred to him,) the number one country man
Chet Atkins, even though i don't listen to him all that often, deserves respect from any country music guitarists (as dose Waylon and WIllie...)

most if it sucks, but there are a few (if rather rare) 'diamonds in the rough' so to speak. I don;t think its the fact that its new that makes it bad, so don't mistake me. i think the pop culture world has come to put more emphasis on image then the quality of the music. Another thing is, (while dont get me wrong there are some awesome stuuf you can do with computers and guitar effects and i really do enjoy them), but we have too many ways to electronically cover up mistakes and make it sound better. Not that I don;t want music to sound better, I just think it ought to sound good without being polished up too. 
  I think the best singers and players are the ones who could sit down in front of you with just thier guitar and thier own voice and still sound great..... so anyway thats just my opinion. Nice to meet another girl who plays by the way.

fart the alphabet..... now if somebody figgers out how though please share lol

lol country song isn't the title, i just put that because its A country song. I Really hadn;t even put a lot of thought into a title yet, but yeah I like the idea about using the last line of the chorus... kind of reminiscent of some of Hank's stuff actually.

oh ok thanks. I actually know HOW to do most of this stuff im just not familiar with the symbolism. Comes from playing by ear all the time lol.

I'd quote the other responses too but thats a lot of trouble...

WHat you have to do to be a true master:

Make folks cry when you play AND SING
Pay your dues
MOAN THE BLUES
Bend the guitar strings....
make folks feel what you feel inside. - the supposed ghost of Hank WIlliams lol

see i can be a smart A$$ too

yeah im a 'she' lol
