There's tons of variations on the 1-4-5, in the key of C that would be Cmaj., Fmaj., Gmaj. So I'll give you say... a twelve bar blues (but this one isn't bluesy) -
Cmaj. - 4 bars
F maj. - 2 bars
C maj. - 2 bars
G 7 - 1 bar
F maj. - 1 bar
C maj. - 2 bars
Now take that same progression and make all of the chords dom. 7th chords, and you have a 12 bar blues shuffle, or whatever you wanna call it, and that is bluesy.
Now take the last one (with all 7th chords) and make them all minor 7th chords. Now you have a cool minor blues situation.
Here's one you'll most likely come across in Jazz (key of C) -
D min 7th - 1 bar OR 2 beats
G 7 - 1 bar OR 2 beats
C maj.7 - 2 bars OR 1 bar
Heres a cool one for a kind of flamenco-es progression (but it isn't true flamenco) -
A minor - 2 bars
D minor - 2 bars
A minor - 2 bars
E maj.- 2 beats
F maj.- 2 Beats
E maj. - 1 beat
F maj.- 1 beat
G maj. - 1 beat
F maj. - 1 beat
E maj. - 1 bar
Ok that last one may seem confusing, but it is really just open to extreme variation, especially if you are playing in a guitar duet, or going solo. Experiment with it to find timing you like.
That should give you some preogressions to chew on. I'll give some more later, but that should do for a little while.
There are only two important things in life - There's music and theres girls, not necessarily in that order....
