This is how I do it. As always, I'm using the Nashville Numbering System so that it applies to any key that will fit your voice. If anyone would like an explanation of the NNS, there are three of them at Cowpie/Resources/Lessons. My explanation is #3 but read them all. Feel free to contact me for help at tipper194@juno.com.
