From a theoretical standpoint, a 12-bar blues progression is an arrangement of a I IV V chord progression. It follows this form ( / are bar lines) I/I/I/I IV/IV/I/I V/IV/I/I So in any key, say C, you would use the 1st, 4th and 5th chord of the scale like this: C/C/C/C F/F/C/C G/F/C/C its very common, tons of pieces are based off of 12-bar progressions. Think of Elvis' rendition of Hound Dog, or The Beatles' Why Dont We Do It In the Road In addition, the beat can vary from song to song, as long as the pattern of chords does not change. You can also use: I/I/I/I IV/IV I/I V/V/I/I
