[I know this probably belongs in Tab section, but that's not very active and I was hoping for some eyes]

I've been finding lots of songs in the Western Swing and old Country repertoire call for I-VI-II-V-I turnarounds, and I'm kinda stuck on the one I stumbled on. I'm hoping some others might want to share different voicings with me.

Here's what I usually do for G (sometimes those 3-string grips are only 2 strings...):
Code:

      I    VI  II  V   I
      G    E   A   D   G
e |---------------------------
C#|---10---7---8---5---10-----
A |---10---7-----------10-----
F#|------------7--------------
E |---10---7-------5---10-----
C#|---------------------------
A |---------------------------
F#|---------------------------


Any habitual alternative voicings you like to use?

Here's one with a bit of colour and some voice leading that works OK.

Looks good. I'll see if I can get those 3-string slants in tune!
